This is all thread drift but Leady is correct about takeoff and landing clearances:
Often been cleared to land joining the ILS in Honolulu for instance with two more departures and the guy five miles in front of me to land first! It works, just land once runway clear!
At Heathrow you may be cleared to line up “after Brittania 767”, when you look for Brittania they are number four on the other side of the runway while you are number five on this side!
As Fujii did not perceive, there are different rules around the world.
