Narrative

CONDITIONS BEGAN TO BECOME IFR WITH TSTMS RAIN AND LOW VISIBILITY. I WAS FLYING AT 10500 FT AT THE TIME SO I DECIDED TO DSND AND RETURN TO AMERICUS COUNTY ARPT TO WAIT OUT THE STORM. I BEGAN TO GO AROUND CLOUDS AS I DSNDED. AHEAD I FINALLY SPOTTED AN ARPT THINKING IT TO BE AMERICUS COUNTY; SO I CALLED UNICOM AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS NO TFC AND THAT RWY 04 WAS ACTIVE. AS I XED MIDFIELD TO CONFIRM WIND DIRECTION AND RWY 04 I HEARD AN ACFT ANNOUNCING HIS INTENTIONS TO LAND AS HE WAS AT .5 MI OUT. I THEREFORE TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD FOLLOW HIM. I THEN TURNED INTO A DOWNWIND TO 04 BUT COULD NOT FIND THE ACFT. I THEN PULLED OUT OF THE PATTERN FOR FEAR OF A MID AIR. I CALLED AGAIN ON UNICOM AND AGAIN NO ANSWER. I THEN FLEW AWAY FROM THE ARPT LOOKING FOR ANOTHER PLACE TO LAND. THE STORM WAS GETTING CLOSER SO I AGAIN APCHED THE ARPT TURNING INTO A DOWNWIND TO 04; BUT THIS TIME I SAW AN ACFT AT THE HOLD SHORT LINE TO RWY 22 SO MIDWAY DOWN THE DOWNWIND I CROSSED MIDFIELD AND BEGAN A DOWNWIND TO 22 THINKING THE ACTIVE RWY HAD CHANGED. I CONTINUED TO ANNOUNCE ALL MY INTENTIONS ON THE UNICOM FREQ. I THEN TURNED L BASE THEN FINAL WATCHING THE ACFT AT THE HOLD LINE VERY CAREFULLY FOR ANY MOVEMENT THAT WOULD CAUSE ME TO GAR. I TRIED CALLING UNICOM NO ANSWER. AFTER LNDG I TAXIED TO A FBO FOR FUEL. THE TWR CALLED AND INFORMED ME THAT I WAS AT ALBANY GEORGIA ARPT AND WAS IN VIOLATION OF THEIR AIRSPACE AND THAT THEY WERE FILING A RPT. ALBANY ARPT ALSO HAS A RWY 04-22. PROBLEMS THAT AROSE WERE: BOTH ARPTS LOOKED VERY MUCH ALIKE. I WAS FLYING USING AN ATLANTA SECTIONAL CHART AND WHEN DETOURED BY THE STORM MY FLT ACTUALLY BROUGHT ME OFF THE BOTTOM OF THIS CHART UNKNOWINGLY AND ONTO THE JACKSONVILLE CHART AND THEREFORE I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THERE WAS A SIMILAR LOOKING ARPT. I DID NOT INTENTIONALLY VIOLATE ANYTHING. I GUESS I WAS PERHAPS MORE AFRAID OF GETTING CAUGHT IN THE STORM THEN I SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND NOT TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT I WAS IN THE RIGHT ARPT.
