AGRICULTURAL PLT ON APCH TO LAND HAS TFC APCH FROM OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO LAND. BOTH ACFT MAKE GAR AND LAND ON SAME RWY. PLT OF SECOND ACFT BECOMES VERY IRATE.

Narrative

I WAS MAKING AERIAL APPLICATIONS APPROX 2 MI SE OF THE ONO ARPT. I HAD BEEN WORKING IN THE AREA MOST OF THE DAY. WE HAD BEEN DEPARTING RWY 14 AND LNDG RWY 32 SINCE THE WIND WAS LIGHT AND VARIABLE. AT APPROX XA00 HRS; I WAS APCHING TO LAND RWY 32 FROM A R BASE; AND TURNING TO A SHORT FINAL. I FIRST OBSERVED ANOTHER ACFT (C180) LOW ON SHORT FINAL FOR RWY 14. BOTH PLTS EXECUTED A MISSED APCH TO THE R. I ENTERED A R DOWNWIND FOR RWY 14. THE C180 THEN LANDED BEHIND ME ON RWY 14. WE WERE NEVER CLOSER THAN 3/4 MI. THE C180 PLT FOLLOWED ME TO THE LOADING SITE; VERY IRATE! THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION; I EXPLAINED IT WOULD CERTAINLY HELP MYSELF AND OTHER PLTS IF HE WOULD TURN ON LNDG LIGHTS WHEN AT UNCTLED FIELD; WHICH OFFENDED HIM. I INFORMED HIM MINE IS ON AT ALL TIMES. THE PROB IS THAT THE TERRAIN N OF ONO ARPT RISES ABOUT 250 FT. ONCE AN ACFT IS BELOW PATTERN ALT; IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE DUE TO GND CLUTTER; ESPECIALLY HEAD-ON. WE PLTS NEED TO DEVELOP AN ATTITUDE WE WILL DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE (ESPECIALLY AT UNCTLED ARPT) TO HELP EACH OTHER SEE AND AVOID; NO MATTER OUR POS AT THE ARPT. WE NEED TO BE AWARE WHEN WE ARE MOST INVISIBLE TO OTHER ACFT AND USE ALL AVAILABLE AIDS TO MAKE OURSELVES MORE VISIBLE TO OTHERS.
