Analysis
The pilot landed at the uncontrolled airport to refuel. After receiving an in-person weather briefing, he filed a VFR flight plan. He contacted the fss on the airport advisory frequency and advised that he ws taxiing and would be making an intersection takeoff on runway (rwy) 18. The fss issued an airport advisory for rwy 18 and provided a traffic advisory concerning an aircraft on a VOR approach and a Cessna that had reported on downwind for rwy 07 about 1 minute earlier. However, the pilot remembered receiving only the barometric pressure setting. He stated that he did not hear other aircraft giving advisories on that frequency. As he taxied eastbound on to rwy 18, Cessna 152, N89255, was landingon rwy 07. Shortly after the pilot of N5037D began an immediate takeoff, he saw the Cessna 152 and applied brakes, but he did not stop until reaching the intersection of the rwys. The Cessna 152 aircrew applied brakes and tried turning right, but their left wing tip hit the windshield of N5037D. The Cessna 152 aircrew were practicing crosswind landings.
The student and instructor pilot (ip) were practicing touch-and-go landings. After four landings on runway 18, they switched to runway 07 for crosswind practice. The ip stated that they utilized the airport advisory service, monitored the communications/positions of other aircraft, and advised the fss of their intention to switch to runway 07. The ip was aware of an aircraft that had departed and another that was on a VOR approach, but stated that he did not see any aircraft taxiing on the runways, ramps or taxiways. As the aircraft was touching down between the runway numbers and the intersection, a Cessna 182, N5037D, was observed rolling on runway 18. The ip reported that brakes were applied and a right turn was attempted, but the left wing tip struck the windshield of the other aircraft. The Cessna 182 pilot had started an intersection takeoff on runway 18 from a taxiway when he saw N89255. He applied brakes and came to a stop in the intersection of the runways, just prior to impact.
