Nightrider:
You are quite simply talking bullsh*t. Jackharr is quite right; the aircraft was a BAC-111 belonging to British Island Airways (BIA). The main easterly runway (08R) was closed for maintenance and the aircraft was making an approach to the secondary runway (08L).
The chap in the left seat (DC) was a new captain under training and the training captain was sitting in the right seat. The trainee was on the correct runway but the training captain kept insisting that they had to land on the most northerly strip which was actually the parallel taxiway.
Against his better judgement, the trainee did as he was told and was quickly proved right.
I believe the training captain was fired and the trainee was absolved of all blame. The latter did indeed go on to fly the BAe146 with Air Foyle.
It would be useful if you got your facts right before bursting into print.
