Narrative:

Tower cleared me to land on runway 35L. I responded 'cleared on runway 35L.' I then set up for a long final for runway 35R and landed. While rolling out, I realized my mistake as the tower confirmed by saying, 'nx, is that you on runway 35R? Turn left on taxiway A5.' since I could only turn right on taxiway A5, I told the tower, 'turning right on taxiway A5.' tower told me to contact ground and call tower as soon as the plane had been tied down. When I called the tower, the woman mentioned that she just wanted me to be aware of how important correct communication is with ATC for a safe and operable airport environment. It is everyone's responsibility to report in a clear and understandable manner. I mentioned that the tower was very busy at the time of this transaction and I possibly could have gotten mixed up. She relayed the fact that, as time goes by and I become more experienced talking to controllers, the easier safe communications will be. As far as correcting my mistake, I will be more conscious in terms of orders given by the controllers and my correct response. I admit I was fatigued and not paying the tower my full attention.

Title: AN SMA SPI LANDED ON THE WRONG RWY.

Narrative: TWR CLRED ME TO LAND ON RWY 35L. I RESPONDED 'CLRED ON RWY 35L.' I THEN SET UP FOR A LONG FINAL FOR RWY 35R AND LANDED. WHILE ROLLING OUT, I REALIZED MY MISTAKE AS THE TWR CONFIRMED BY SAYING, 'NX, IS THAT YOU ON RWY 35R? TURN L ON TXWY A5.' SINCE I COULD ONLY TURN R ON TXWY A5, I TOLD THE TWR, 'TURNING R ON TXWY A5.' TWR TOLD ME TO CONTACT GND AND CALL TWR AS SOON AS THE PLANE HAD BEEN TIED DOWN. WHEN I CALLED THE TWR, THE WOMAN MENTIONED THAT SHE JUST WANTED ME TO BE AWARE OF HOW IMPORTANT CORRECT COM IS WITH ATC FOR A SAFE AND OPERABLE ARPT ENVIRONMENT. IT IS EVERYONE'S RESPONSIBILITY TO RPT IN A CLR AND UNDERSTANDABLE MANNER. I MENTIONED THAT THE TWR WAS VERY BUSY AT THE TIME OF THIS TRANSACTION AND I POSSIBLY COULD HAVE GOTTEN MIXED UP. SHE RELAYED THE FACT THAT, AS TIME GOES BY AND I BECOME MORE EXPERIENCED TALKING TO CTLRS, THE EASIER SAFE COMS WILL BE. AS FAR AS CORRECTING MY MISTAKE, I WILL BE MORE CONSCIOUS IN TERMS OF ORDERS GIVEN BY THE CTLRS AND MY CORRECT RESPONSE. I ADMIT I WAS FATIGUED AND NOT PAYING THE TWR MY FULL ATTN.
