Then, of course, there is that variation of

The scenario? Years ago now on my Nite QCC to Norwich where I'd pre-arranged the landing fee but, of course the regs required a full stop landing followed by a separate departure. However, the regs never said anything about actually having to taxi anywhere between arrival and departure so I was most grateful to ATC for that one and for the airport having a nice long runway (for a PA-28 if I recall). Saved a few minutes on the ground .... and annoyed a RW jock!
Ah, happy daze!
