Narrative:
We departed on a training flight. After air work in the south practice area we departed the practice area to heg. Arriving at heg I entered left downwind for runway 7. Winds were calm. I reported downwind; base and final for each pattern lap. On the 3RD pattern a C182 reported to be taxiing to runway 25. I continued approach for runway 7 and reported that I would be doing a touch and go. As I added power on my departure roll I noticed the C182 on the takeoff roll on runway 25. I immediately reduced power and applied brakes and right rudder. The C182 did the same. We passed at midfield within 50 ft from each other. At no time did I hear any other radio calls to the C182 or other aircraft. I returned to the run-up area and tried to reach the other aircraft. I had no response. Note: when taking off runway 7 or runway 25 you are unable to see the other end of the runway due to crown in the center of the airport.

Title: A C172 EXPERIENCED A NMAC WITH A C182 AT HEG.
Narrative: WE DEPARTED ON A TRAINING FLT. AFTER AIR WORK IN THE S PRACTICE AREA WE DEPARTED THE PRACTICE AREA TO HEG. ARRIVING AT HEG I ENTERED L DOWNWIND FOR RWY 7. WINDS WERE CALM. I RPTED DOWNWIND; BASE AND FINAL FOR EACH PATTERN LAP. ON THE 3RD PATTERN A C182 RPTED TO BE TAXIING TO RWY 25. I CONTINUED APCH FOR RWY 7 AND RPTED THAT I WOULD BE DOING A TOUCH AND GO. AS I ADDED PWR ON MY DEP ROLL I NOTICED THE C182 ON THE TKOF ROLL ON RWY 25. I IMMEDIATELY REDUCED PWR AND APPLIED BRAKES AND R RUDDER. THE C182 DID THE SAME. WE PASSED AT MIDFIELD WITHIN 50 FT FROM EACH OTHER. AT NO TIME DID I HEAR ANY OTHER RADIO CALLS TO THE C182 OR OTHER ACFT. I RETURNED TO THE RUN-UP AREA AND TRIED TO REACH THE OTHER ACFT. I HAD NO RESPONSE. NOTE: WHEN TAKING OFF RWY 7 OR RWY 25 YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE THE OTHER END OF THE RWY DUE TO CROWN IN THE CTR OF THE ARPT.
