I am not surprised! 11R/29L isnt much wider than most taxiways! after their first hours doing circuits on 11R/29L i can see how a mistake like this can be made!
My instructor reckons he waits until they're at about 150' - 200' and says "Where are you landing?"

They never make that mistake again

Of course I wasn't one of them!

Also saw someone land on the taxiway diagonally across the runways - turned out to be a partial engine failure. I nearly crapped myself as I was in the run up bay and they were coming straight at me! Got out of there QUICK smart
