Narrative

I HAD PLANNED AN EARLY-EVENING FLT TO OXNARD MUNICIPAL ARPT WITH A NON-PLT FRIEND. OXNARD ARPT IS LOCATED APPROX 5 NM NW OF NAWS POINT MUGU. AT APPROX XX00. I ESTABLISHED CONTACT WITH OXNARD TWR. THEY REQUESTED THAT I IDENT USING MY XPONDER; WHICH I DID. SUBSEQUENTLY I WAS CLRED TO LAND. MY DIRECTION OF FLT ON FINAL WAS BTWN 210-250 DEGS -- SUCH THAT MY VISIBILITY WAS SIGNIFICANTLY IMPAIRED DUE TO THE GLARE OF THE SETTING SUN. UPON CONTACT WITH THE RWY; MY VISIBILITY WAS RESTORED TO THE DEG THAT I REALIZED I WAS NOT AT OXNARD; BUT IN FACT ON A SUBSTANTIALLY LARGER RWY AT AN UNFAMILIAR FACILITY. I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED FULL PWR AND RESUMED FLT; HAVING TOUCHED DOWN ONLY BRIEFLY. A FEW MINS LATER; OXNARD TWR CONTACTED ME AND ASKED MY LOCATION. I RESPONDED THAT I WAS OVERWATER AND REQUESTED PERMISSION TO TRANSITION TO RETURN TO VAN NUYS. THE REQUEST WAS APPROVED AND I RETURNED TO VNY WITHOUT INCIDENT. AT NO TIME WHILE I WAS IN THE RESTR AIRSPACE DID I OBSERVE ANY ACFT ON THE RWY; TXWY OR IN THE AIR AT OR NEAR NAWS POINT MUGU.
