Narrative:

I was practicing crosswind takeoff and lndgs on runway 5. I announced my intentions on final to do a touch-and-go on runway 5. When I touched down and went full power, I saw another plane taking off on runway 17. I saw we were on a collision course and shut down and hit the brakes. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter said he was shooting touch-and-goes on runway 23 and not runway 5 as he said in his report. He saw the small aircraft running up for takeoff runway 17 which was the preferential runway and kept an eye on him.

Title: DURING TOUCH AND GO AT AN UNCTLED ARPT, RPTR ABORTS THE 'GO' WHEN ANOTHER ACFT BEGINS TKOF ON AN INTERSECTING RWY.

Narrative: I WAS PRACTICING XWIND TKOF AND LNDGS ON RWY 5. I ANNOUNCED MY INTENTIONS ON FINAL TO DO A TOUCH-AND-GO ON RWY 5. WHEN I TOUCHED DOWN AND WENT FULL PWR, I SAW ANOTHER PLANE TAKING OFF ON RWY 17. I SAW WE WERE ON A COLLISION COURSE AND SHUT DOWN AND HIT THE BRAKES. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR SAID HE WAS SHOOTING TOUCH-AND-GOES ON RWY 23 AND NOT RWY 5 AS HE SAID IN HIS RPT. HE SAW THE SMA RUNNING UP FOR TKOF RWY 17 WHICH WAS THE PREFERENTIAL RWY AND KEPT AN EYE ON HIM.
