Narrative:

I was landing at an uncontrolled airport where no unicom is in service. The only activity at this particular airport is an occasional aircraft being brought into the maintenance facility located on the field. The runway is runway 18/36. Upon calling base for runway 18 as king air XXX, another aircraft called base for runway 36 with an n-number only -- not type. On turning final for runway 18, the opposing aircraft called final for runway 36. (I used runway 18 because wind direction at my departure airport 60 mi away was and my brief for the closest reporting station 30 mi away was from the southwest.) at 1/2 mi final, I spotted a landing light 3 mi from the departure end of runway 18. Thinking I had plenty of time and knowing the airport, I continued my approach. However, prior to touchdown, an aircraft appeared on short final for runway 36 while the aircraft with the landing lights on was continuing his approach. It became apparent to me the closest aircraft was the one calling pattern, the furthest was silent. As I touched down, the aircraft on final for runway 36 (the closest) called go around and the furthest did the same. Not knowing who is in the wrong or right, all I can submit is that good communications and vigilance in looking for traffic is utmost in uncontrolled fields. P.south. I started calling approach to the field 15 mi out as I have done so for the past 3 yrs.

Title: PLT OF A BEECH KING AIR AFTER TOUCHING DOWN AT AN UNCTLED ARPT CAUSED 2 OTHER ACFT APCHING TO LAND IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO GAR. THE RPTR BASED THE WIND DIRECTION ON HIS LAST DEPARTED ARPT AND ANOTHER IN BTWN, WHICH WERE 60 AND 30 MI RESPECTIVELY.

Narrative: I WAS LNDG AT AN UNCTLED ARPT WHERE NO UNICOM IS IN SVC. THE ONLY ACTIVITY AT THIS PARTICULAR ARPT IS AN OCCASIONAL ACFT BEING BROUGHT INTO THE MAINT FACILITY LOCATED ON THE FIELD. THE RWY IS RWY 18/36. UPON CALLING BASE FOR RWY 18 AS KING AIR XXX, ANOTHER ACFT CALLED BASE FOR RWY 36 WITH AN N-NUMBER ONLY -- NOT TYPE. ON TURNING FINAL FOR RWY 18, THE OPPOSING ACFT CALLED FINAL FOR RWY 36. (I USED RWY 18 BECAUSE WIND DIRECTION AT MY DEP ARPT 60 MI AWAY WAS AND MY BRIEF FOR THE CLOSEST RPTING STATION 30 MI AWAY WAS FROM THE SW.) AT 1/2 MI FINAL, I SPOTTED A LNDG LIGHT 3 MI FROM THE DEP END OF RWY 18. THINKING I HAD PLENTY OF TIME AND KNOWING THE ARPT, I CONTINUED MY APCH. HOWEVER, PRIOR TO TOUCHDOWN, AN ACFT APPEARED ON SHORT FINAL FOR RWY 36 WHILE THE ACFT WITH THE LNDG LIGHTS ON WAS CONTINUING HIS APCH. IT BECAME APPARENT TO ME THE CLOSEST ACFT WAS THE ONE CALLING PATTERN, THE FURTHEST WAS SILENT. AS I TOUCHED DOWN, THE ACFT ON FINAL FOR RWY 36 (THE CLOSEST) CALLED GAR AND THE FURTHEST DID THE SAME. NOT KNOWING WHO IS IN THE WRONG OR RIGHT, ALL I CAN SUBMIT IS THAT GOOD COMS AND VIGILANCE IN LOOKING FOR TFC IS UTMOST IN UNCTLED FIELDS. P.S. I STARTED CALLING APCH TO THE FIELD 15 MI OUT AS I HAVE DONE SO FOR THE PAST 3 YRS.

Pilot of a beech king air after touching down at an uncontrolled airport caused 2 other aircraft approaching to land in the opposite direction to go around. The reporter based the wind direction on his last departed airport and another in between, which were 60 and 30 mi respectively.
