BE20 AND C152 HAD NMAC AT KLS.

Narrative

ON DEC/SUN/98 AT APPROX XA20 PST ATC CLRED ME FOR THE NDB APCH TO KELSO ARPT; WA. AT APPROX XA30 I BROKE OUT ON THE APCH AT 1200 FT INDICATED AND PROCEEDED FOR RWY 12 VISUALLY. ON SHORT FINAL TO RWY 12; A STUDENT PLT IN A C152; TAXIED ONTO RWY 12; CAUSING A NEAR MISS SIT. I EXECUTED A GAR AND LANDED SAFELY. THE STUDENT PLT ADMITTED HE COULD HEAR MY RADIO CALLS; BUT DID NOT SEE ME ON FINAL APCH. NO CONTACT OR DAMAGE WAS MADE TO EITHER ACFT. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 421938: I WAS PRACTICING LNDGS AND TKOFS. I HAD DONE SEVERAL LNDGS AND DECIDED TO PRACTICE SOME SOFT FIELD AND SHORT FIELD TKOFS. THERE WAS ONE OTHER PLANE IN THE PATTERN WITH ME A C152 WITH A STUDENT AND INSTRUCTOR. THEY WERE ALSO PRACTICING LNDGS. A KING AIR RADIOED THAT HE WAS OVER THE NDB AND SETTING UP FOR LNDG AT KLS. I HAD LANDED AND WAS WATCHING THE INSTRUCTOR AND HIS STUDENT LAND. I WATCHED THEM TURN FROM DOWNWIND TO BASE TO FINAL; WATCHED THEM LAND AND DEPART. THIS IS WHEN THE PROB STARTED. AS I WATCHED THE INSTRUCTOR DEPART I MADE MY CALL TO PROCEED WITH MY TKOF. I SCANNED THE AIR IN OUR TFC PATTERN AND SAW NO OTHER PLANE. HOWEVER THE KING AIR WAS ON AN INST APCH AND HAD CALLED A 1/2 MI FINAL. IT DID NOT REGISTER IN MY MIND; I PROCEEDED WITH A SOFT FIELD TKOF IN FRONT OF THE KING AIR. I DID NOT REALIZE WHAT HAD HAPPENED UNTIL I LOOKED OUT MY R WINDOW AT 300 FT AND WATCHED THE KING AIR GO BY. IN MY INSTRUCTION AND SHORT TIME AS A STUDENT PLT I HAVE ONLY READ ABOUT INST FLTS AND APCHS. I HAVE NEVER BEEN AROUND WHEN A PLANE IS MAKING INST APCHS OR LNDGS. WHEN THE KING AIR STATED HE WAS ON A 1/2 MI FINAL IT NEVER REGISTERED BECAUSE ALL OF MY TRAINING FOR LNDGS HAS BEEN WITH 'THIS IS CESSNA...TURNING DOWNWIND; TURNING BASE; OR TURNING FINAL'. I HAVE NEVER HEARD SOMEONE STATE THEY WERE ON A 1/2 MI FINAL. I THINK THIS PROB COULD BE AVOIDED BY MORE ACTIVE INSTRUCTION AS TO WHAT AN IFR PLT HAS TO DO AND WHY HE HAS TO DO IT. I HAVE MADE APPOINTMENTS WITH MY INSTRUCTORS TO SHOW ME AN NDB AND TEACH ME THE PROCS. I WANT TO SAY THE PLT OF THE KING AIR WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL IN HIS AVOIDANCE OF MY MISTAKE. HIS HEADS UP FLYING KEPT US BOTH OUT OF TROUBLE.
