In my case it was same-way, same-day at Stanley. Everyone a bit tense on fuel and the Airbridge C-130 was inbound.

1. C-130 lands and goes to the far end of 27 and holds in the little turning space.
2. F-4 takes approach end cable, having been advised to the C-130 at the far end,. (Well, we did have 5 cables!
3. Islander cleared to land over the top the F-4, after assurances all switches safe.

Islander taxies in, followed by C-130, then the un-hooked F-4 ... in time for the Airbridge to arrive with a clear runway.

I'm sure it was quasi-legal, but my fg off Watch Supervisor came roaring up the stairs to Local to ask SATCO WTF he was doing!
