And 'allegedly' there was the 4-ship of Hawks recovering from a week in Gibraltar, around the turn on the millennium, who found that the weather at Valley had clagged in and the PAR failed at the moment critique...the first one went round from an SRA and diverted to Liverpool, No 2 got in off the SRA, 3 and 4 tried the SRA but couldn't get in and also diverted to Liverpool now seriously short of fuel. 3 flew the full pattern to 27 and touched down on the vapours, to be confronted by 4 on short finals for 09 having found a break in the clouds. Cue very expeditious vacating of runway by 3...and Liverpool refusing to be Valley's div for many years subsequently!
