Narrative:
VOR-DME approach into paso robles. Broke through 1000 ft broken/overcast layer and observed cessna agcat landing straight-in runway 13, as we were approaching runway 31 threshold. We made evasive climbing left turn. Other aircraft made abrupt left turn, eventually landing on runway 13. Wind was calm. Unable to locate aircraft on field, likely parked in hangar. Radio calls unanswered. I announced my position on unicom frequently.
