Narrative:

It was a clear day, wind calm, when I decided to make a practice ILS approach on runway 19 at bremerton airport, wa, (kpwt). The bremerton AWOS reported the wind to be calm. When I called pwt unicom for runway in use, I received no answer. When intercepting the ILS outside the outer marker, I announced on the CTAF that I was on a long final for runway 19 at bremerton. When on 1 1/2 mile final I announced on the CTAF that I was on short final for runway 19 at bremerton. When on 1/2 mile final, I observed light single engine aircraft climb out in the opposite direction of my flight. That airplane was in my estimation then 900 ft above me, and 2000 ft to the left of me. At no time were we close to a near midair collision. Throughout the approach the only radio communication that I heard on the CTAF was traffic that appeared to be flying to or from skagit regional airport, (kbvs), at no time did I hear any bremerton traffic information. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter indicated that he had a face to face encounter with the C150 pilot later, who accused him of not maintaining a listening watch on CTAF. Reporter contends that he monitored the CTAF for the pwt airport and never heard the C150 announce his intentions that he was departing from the opposite end of the runway.

Title: BE18 ON A SHORT FINAL TO RWY 19 AT PWT, ENCOUNTERS A C150 ON ITS CLIMB OUT FORM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

Narrative: IT WAS A CLEAR DAY, WIND CALM, WHEN I DECIDED TO MAKE A PRACTICE ILS APCH ON RWY 19 AT BREMERTON ARPT, WA, (KPWT). THE BREMERTON AWOS RPTED THE WIND TO BE CALM. WHEN I CALLED PWT UNICOM FOR RWY IN USE, I RECEIVED NO ANSWER. WHEN INTERCEPTING THE ILS OUTSIDE THE OUTER MARKER, I ANNOUNCED ON THE CTAF THAT I WAS ON A LONG FINAL FOR RWY 19 AT BREMERTON. WHEN ON 1 1/2 MILE FINAL I ANNOUNCED ON THE CTAF THAT I WAS ON SHORT FINAL FOR RWY 19 AT BREMERTON. WHEN ON 1/2 MILE FINAL, I OBSERVED LIGHT SINGLE ENGINE ACFT CLIMB OUT IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF MY FLT. THAT AIRPLANE WAS IN MY ESTIMATION THEN 900 FT ABOVE ME, AND 2000 FT TO THE L OF ME. AT NO TIME WERE WE CLOSE TO A NMAC. THROUGHOUT THE APCH THE ONLY RADIO COM THAT I HEARD ON THE CTAF WAS TFC THAT APPEARED TO BE FLYING TO OR FROM SKAGIT REGIONAL ARPT, (KBVS), AT NO TIME DID I HEAR ANY BREMERTON TFC INFO. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR INDICATED THAT HE HAD A FACE TO FACE ENCOUNTER WITH THE C150 PLT LATER, WHO ACCUSED HIM OF NOT MAINTAINING A LISTENING WATCH ON CTAF. RPTR CONTENDS THAT HE MONITORED THE CTAF FOR THE PWT ARPT AND NEVER HEARD THE C150 ANNOUNCE HIS INTENTIONS THAT HE WAS DEPARTING FROM THE OPPOSITE END OF THE RWY.
