Narrative:

On tuesday 9/90, at xa:am, I had breakfast. I attended class, I studied in the library then I drove to taunton airport. I preflted and fueled the airplane an small aircraft. I departed taunton's runway 30 at approximately xc:40 am to practice commercial maneuvers above the local lakes near the airport. I performed chandelles, lazy-8S, and steep-power turns. After practicing for 1.0 hours I began to feel nausea, dizzy and disoriented. I had no sense of where I was located. I looked for taunton airport for approximately 10 mins and could not visly sight the runway. I began to violently vomit in the airplane. I felt that I was becoming increasingly incapable of handling the airplane. I immediately began to look for a place to land. The first and nearest airport I had in sight was to be my immediate destination. Because of fear of passing out and becoming completely incapacitated and crashing the airplane I began to descend to the nearest runway ahead. I did not have the frequency of the airport, I looked to make sure no other planes were taking off or landing. Throughout the performance of the landing procedures I continued to violently vomit in the airplane. At approximately 500' above the runway I noticed a green aircraft on the green grass that I had not see previously. I began to go-around, and while climbing I felt that I had to place my airplane on the ground because I felt extremely dizzy and incapable of handling the controls. I executed a 180 degree turn to runway 17. It was a rough landing but I placed the aircraft safely on the ground and taxied to a parking area in front of FBO aviation and a gentleman in the fuel truck informed me that the personnel in ATC tower want to speak to me. After I had cleaned up I spoke to the pilot who was flying the green airplane, the tower manager and a few other tower personnel. After I had explained my reasons for landing at their airport, the tower personnel did not feel that it was necessary to file reports against my actions. I soon found out from the tower personnel that I had landed at a controled field, on the wrong runway and had been flying within a terminal control area. The manager of norwood control tower offered me a coca-cola and when I drank it I no longer felt nausea or dizzy. I stayed in norwood airport a couple hours and cleaned out my airplane. I taxied on to runway 28 and departed. Approximately ten mins after the takeoff I began to vomit again. I asked norwood tower to reassure me I was on the correct heading to taunton. The controller told me to contact boston approach for vectors to taunton airport. Boston approach told me to take the 270 heading and that taunton airport was straight ahead at 12 O'clock. I advised boston approach that I had the airport in sight and he told me to switch to the local frequency of taunton. Upon landing my flight instrument, informed me that the FAA had called him and that he needed to know what had happened. When I returned to my apartment I still felt sick thus I went to the student health services. I informed the nurse as to what had happened all day and she concluded that perhaps I had the 24 hour flu or virus.
