Narrative:

Called ground for taxi. The clearance included a back-taxi on a runway. The runways are runway 21L and runway 21R. Back taxiing on runway 21R is normal, but I thought ground said to back-taxi on runway 21L. This made sense, because I was right next to runway 21L. I repeated back clearance, including the runway 21L runway back-taxi. After crossing the runway boundary yellow line, ground called and said I was going the wrong way. They then cleared me to back-taxi on runway 21L. Even though I repeated back the clearance to include the back-taxi, maybe I should have queried ground control, since the clearance was different than usual. I have heard of controllers not listening to readbacks as they are thinking ahead to their next thing.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: C152 PLT HAD A RWY INCURSION AT LUK.

Narrative: CALLED GND FOR TAXI. THE CLRNC INCLUDED A BACK-TAXI ON A RWY. THE RWYS ARE RWY 21L AND RWY 21R. BACK TAXIING ON RWY 21R IS NORMAL, BUT I THOUGHT GND SAID TO BACK-TAXI ON RWY 21L. THIS MADE SENSE, BECAUSE I WAS RIGHT NEXT TO RWY 21L. I REPEATED BACK CLRNC, INCLUDING THE RWY 21L RWY BACK-TAXI. AFTER XING THE RWY BOUNDARY YELLOW LINE, GND CALLED AND SAID I WAS GOING THE WRONG WAY. THEY THEN CLRED ME TO BACK-TAXI ON RWY 21L. EVEN THOUGH I REPEATED BACK THE CLRNC TO INCLUDE THE BACK-TAXI, MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE QUERIED GND CTL, SINCE THE CLRNC WAS DIFFERENT THAN USUAL. I HAVE HEARD OF CTLRS NOT LISTENING TO READBACKS AS THEY ARE THINKING AHEAD TO THEIR NEXT THING.
