Let's get back to the nostalgia!

Anybody remember the close coordination between SVFR and Air Arrivals/Deps, which facilitated a low approach and go around by a Harvard - up RWY05 in the late 70's?

As I recall, the close coordination skillfully avoided the Tower Sup - LW - who was otherwise occupied with a visitor.
All went well until the moment the Harvard crossed 28R at speed, pulling up, which unfortunately coincided with LW's guided tour reaching the same point on the airfield!

Those were the days!
