Narrative:

After practicing various private pilot maneuvers, I had the student make a simulated emergency landing. Altitude at that time, 2000' MSL. Because we were within 1/2 mi of 0w7, he decided to land there. We entered the traffic pattern for runway 02 (right-hand pattern) while giving our position every leg on the unicom 122.8. When we got close to the runway on final, I saw that he could easily make it. We landed. I wanted to make a touch and go, but because of the crosswind, my student lost some directional control and I aborted the takeoff. We taxied back on runway 02 while transmitting our intentions on 122.7. When we took off (this time I took the aircraft off), somebody walked up on the taxiway toward the runway. The man was waving like he wanted us to get away from the airport. Later on the ground at mtn, our home base, I realized we needed prior permission to land (I looked it up in the airport facility directory); but, because we didn't see and 'X' on the (grass) runway at 0w7, I thought it was open for operation. It was an unintentional mistake I made, but I regret it. No 'X' on the runway can still mean the airport is not available for operation. I'll double-check the airport facility directory next time again.

Title: DURING TRAINING SESSION, A PRACTICE SIMULATED ENGINE FLR LNDG MADE AT UNCONTROLLED ARPT. REPORTER LATER REALIZED THE ARPT REQUIRED PRIOR PERMISSION TO LAND.

Narrative: AFTER PRACTICING VARIOUS PVT PLT MANEUVERS, I HAD THE STUDENT MAKE A SIMULATED EMER LNDG. ALT AT THAT TIME, 2000' MSL. BECAUSE WE WERE WITHIN 1/2 MI OF 0W7, HE DECIDED TO LAND THERE. WE ENTERED THE TFC PATTERN FOR RWY 02 (RIGHT-HAND PATTERN) WHILE GIVING OUR POS EVERY LEG ON THE UNICOM 122.8. WHEN WE GOT CLOSE TO THE RWY ON FINAL, I SAW THAT HE COULD EASILY MAKE IT. WE LANDED. I WANTED TO MAKE A TOUCH AND GO, BUT BECAUSE OF THE XWIND, MY STUDENT LOST SOME DIRECTIONAL CTL AND I ABORTED THE TKOF. WE TAXIED BACK ON RWY 02 WHILE XMITTING OUR INTENTIONS ON 122.7. WHEN WE TOOK OFF (THIS TIME I TOOK THE ACFT OFF), SOMEBODY WALKED UP ON THE TXWY TOWARD THE RWY. THE MAN WAS WAVING LIKE HE WANTED US TO GET AWAY FROM THE ARPT. LATER ON THE GND AT MTN, OUR HOME BASE, I REALIZED WE NEEDED PRIOR PERMISSION TO LAND (I LOOKED IT UP IN THE ARPT FAC DIRECTORY); BUT, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T SEE AND 'X' ON THE (GRASS) RWY AT 0W7, I THOUGHT IT WAS OPEN FOR OPERATION. IT WAS AN UNINTENTIONAL MISTAKE I MADE, BUT I REGRET IT. NO 'X' ON THE RWY CAN STILL MEAN THE ARPT IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR OPERATION. I'LL DOUBLE-CHK THE ARPT FAC DIRECTORY NEXT TIME AGAIN.
