Narrative:
My flight departed fpr to go to obe for landing practice. Upon arrival, I announced my intentions on unicom 123.00 for runway 14. This was the prevailing wind, and runway used at fpr also. I was informed there was another plane without a radio that was doing touch and goes on runway 5. I saw a plane departing to the east and thought I had the field to myself. On scan of the area, I saw no other planes. I continued and announced my locations. Just at the time of flare, I saw the micro coming down on runway 5. My first thought was to put the plane down and stop, since going around may have caused a conflict in the air. (At this point of the landing it would have been very challenging, too.) once the wheels touched, I applied brakes. The plane skidded and started sliding down the runway. Once I regained directional control, I steered to miss an airport sign. I bent my front nose fork and tube. The plane was repaired and flown the next day. It seems even with the wind wrong, I should have used the runway 5. It was not my desire to do crosswind training that day. I had waited for the calmest day, and picked the choicest direction since my time in the air is low.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: A PA28-180 ENCOUNTERED ANOTHER ACFT LNDG ON THE INTERSECTING RWY AT OBE, CAUSING HIM TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION WHICH DAMAGED THE ACFT.
Narrative: MY FLT DEPARTED FPR TO GO TO OBE FOR LNDG PRACTICE. UPON ARR, I ANNOUNCED MY INTENTIONS ON UNICOM 123.00 FOR RWY 14. THIS WAS THE PREVAILING WIND, AND RWY USED AT FPR ALSO. I WAS INFORMED THERE WAS ANOTHER PLANE WITHOUT A RADIO THAT WAS DOING TOUCH AND GOES ON RWY 5. I SAW A PLANE DEPARTING TO THE E AND THOUGHT I HAD THE FIELD TO MYSELF. ON SCAN OF THE AREA, I SAW NO OTHER PLANES. I CONTINUED AND ANNOUNCED MY LOCATIONS. JUST AT THE TIME OF FLARE, I SAW THE MICRO COMING DOWN ON RWY 5. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS TO PUT THE PLANE DOWN AND STOP, SINCE GOING AROUND MAY HAVE CAUSED A CONFLICT IN THE AIR. (AT THIS POINT OF THE LNDG IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY CHALLENGING, TOO.) ONCE THE WHEELS TOUCHED, I APPLIED BRAKES. THE PLANE SKIDDED AND STARTED SLIDING DOWN THE RWY. ONCE I REGAINED DIRECTIONAL CTL, I STEERED TO MISS AN ARPT SIGN. I BENT MY FRONT NOSE FORK AND TUBE. THE PLANE WAS REPAIRED AND FLOWN THE NEXT DAY. IT SEEMS EVEN WITH THE WIND WRONG, I SHOULD HAVE USED THE RWY 5. IT WAS NOT MY DESIRE TO DO XWIND TRAINING THAT DAY. I HAD WAITED FOR THE CALMEST DAY, AND PICKED THE CHOICEST DIRECTION SINCE MY TIME IN THE AIR IS LOW.
