I took off last week from the westerly runway and turned left due to:
a) The high ground to the North West that causes the rotors.
b) ATC cleared us to "...take off with a left turn out..." after we had checked the status of the ranges.
Upon arrival at ASI, I too used the RET 'the wrong way around' (your words) because:
a) I didn't want to burn the brakes out.
b) The marshaller's truck is always positioned on the RET pointing towards the ramp (the opposite direction to us on the runway).As were are expected to follow the "Follow Me" truck I positioned the aircraft behind the truck.
Why the 'mystery'?
