BRU NWA incident

The incidente took place back in 1988 or 1989. It involved a DC-10, I think from Detroit or Chicago, and the crew asked and secured a landing clearance in BRU while the flight was scheduled to FRA. What was weird was that the screens showing the flight path (attitude location etc) were correctly showing the approach and landing to BRU instead of the progression to FRA for the pax but apparently the crew failed to be informed (now I come to think about pretty bad CRM).

I am not aware about how the initial mistake was made and why FD crew were not alerted.
