PLT OF XCOUNTRY QUALIFYING FOR COMMERCIAL EXAMINATION DID A GOOD JOB UNTIL HE LANDED ON WRONG RWY AT BKL.

Narrative

I WAS ON MY 250 NM XCOUNTRY FLT FOR MY COMMERCIAL PLT CERTIFICATE FROM N03 TO BKL. WHEN I MADE MY INITIAL CALL UP TO CLEVELAND APCH; I WAS TOLD THAT MY TRANSPONDER WAS INOP. I WAS CLRED TO BKL AS LONG AS I STAYED OUT OF THE TCA. I FLEW UNDERNEATH THE FLOOR AT 3000 MSL. THERE WAS MODERATE TURB AT THAT ALT. I WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH THE AREA AND THERE WERE 4 ARPTS WITHIN 20 NM OF EACH OTHER. 3 OF THEM WERE CTLR FIELDS R OUTSIDE OF THE PRIMARY ARPT; CLEVELAND HOPKINS INTL. I HAD TO FIND BKL WITHOUT RADAR ASSISTANCE. WHEN I FOUND BKL; I CALLED TWR AND THEY CLRED ME TO LAND ON 24R. WHEN I LOOKED AT MY CHART; I NOTICED THAT 6R WAS CLOSER TO TWR. I WAS ON A STRAIGHT IN FOR 24 AND THE GLARE OFF THE WINDSHIELD WAS PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW. I LANDED ON THE RWY CLOSER TO TWR (IT WAS THE SMALLER RWY). I WAS TOLD TO EXIT ON THE FIRST TAXIWAY AND CONTACT GND. WHEN I CONTACTED GND; THEY INFORMED ME THAT I LANDED ON THE WRONG RWY. I LANDED ON 24L INSTEAD OF 24R. I WILL BE MORE FAMILIAR WITH THE ARPT OF INTENDED LNDG BEFORE DEP. ALSO; I WILL ALWAYS QUESTION THE CTLR IF THERE IS ANY UNCERTAINTY.
