Some years ago when Melbourne was at Essendon and the radar was very basic, there was this light aircraft inbound to MB from the NW. He called MB TWR inbound and was given a right base to land on 17R, not such an unusual thing in those days.
He subsequently called base, but the tower could not see him and then they lost comms with him.......
wait for it....
about this time he landed on the N-S taxiway parallel to 17 at EN right in front of the tower....! I understand there was some wide open eyes and mouth's, especially from the Viscount about to leave the RPT apron!!
