aircraft landing at the wrong airfield

I was wondering how often aircraft have landed at the wrong airfield.

Take for example Pan Am Boeing 707 landing at RAF Northolt (anyone have details ?)

I would assume that details would be scarce as to avoid embarrassment but there must have been a few mistakes.

regarding the Boeing 707 / Northolt incident, how was the aircraft flown out again (runway too short) ?
