Narrative:

While parked at the FBO, I started the engines and listened to ATIS, then called for my IFR clearance. I was cleared to taxi to runway 32R. I didn't write down which runway that I was cleared to taxi to, and I thought runway 32R was closed. In fact, runway 32L was the closed runway, as reported in the ATIS broadcast, which I also neglected to write down. Therefore, I proceeded to taxi to runway 32L, thinking that was the open runway. In order to get to runway 32L, I had to cross runway 32R, which I thought I was cleared to do. After crossing runway 32R, the controller informed me of my mistake, and cleared me for a 180 degree turn back to runway 32R. I think the main factors that contributed to this incident were: not writing down the ATIS broadcast when I listened to it, not clarifying my taxi instructions before I crossed the active runway -- even though I did have a small doubt in my mind as to which runway was closed, and the fact that I was tired. I was well within my duty time limits, and actually duty time was not a factor in this flight because I had just dropped off the passenger and was empty, therefore, it was a part 91 leg. But the fact remains that I was tired and fatigued. It was XA00 and I began my day the previous morning at AG00. Even though I didn't start flying or start my duty day until 6 hours later, I was tired and therefore less attentive to detail. In the future, I will consider this limitation more seriously.

Title: A B58 COMMERCIAL ATX PLT CROSSES RWY 32R, THE ACTIVE RWY, FOR A DEP ON RWY 32L, THE CLOSED RWY, AT OMA, NE.

Narrative: WHILE PARKED AT THE FBO, I STARTED THE ENGS AND LISTENED TO ATIS, THEN CALLED FOR MY IFR CLRNC. I WAS CLRED TO TAXI TO RWY 32R. I DIDN'T WRITE DOWN WHICH RWY THAT I WAS CLRED TO TAXI TO, AND I THOUGHT RWY 32R WAS CLOSED. IN FACT, RWY 32L WAS THE CLOSED RWY, AS RPTED IN THE ATIS BROADCAST, WHICH I ALSO NEGLECTED TO WRITE DOWN. THEREFORE, I PROCEEDED TO TAXI TO RWY 32L, THINKING THAT WAS THE OPEN RWY. IN ORDER TO GET TO RWY 32L, I HAD TO CROSS RWY 32R, WHICH I THOUGHT I WAS CLRED TO DO. AFTER XING RWY 32R, THE CTLR INFORMED ME OF MY MISTAKE, AND CLRED ME FOR A 180 DEG TURN BACK TO RWY 32R. I THINK THE MAIN FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THIS INCIDENT WERE: NOT WRITING DOWN THE ATIS BROADCAST WHEN I LISTENED TO IT, NOT CLARIFYING MY TAXI INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE I CROSSED THE ACTIVE RWY -- EVEN THOUGH I DID HAVE A SMALL DOUBT IN MY MIND AS TO WHICH RWY WAS CLOSED, AND THE FACT THAT I WAS TIRED. I WAS WELL WITHIN MY DUTY TIME LIMITS, AND ACTUALLY DUTY TIME WAS NOT A FACTOR IN THIS FLT BECAUSE I HAD JUST DROPPED OFF THE PAX AND WAS EMPTY, THEREFORE, IT WAS A PART 91 LEG. BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT I WAS TIRED AND FATIGUED. IT WAS XA00 AND I BEGAN MY DAY THE PREVIOUS MORNING AT AG00. EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T START FLYING OR START MY DUTY DAY UNTIL 6 HRS LATER, I WAS TIRED AND THEREFORE LESS ATTENTIVE TO DETAIL. IN THE FUTURE, I WILL CONSIDER THIS LIMITATION MORE SERIOUSLY.
