Many years ago when I was at Lydd a very nervous young lady came in with her instructor prior to a qualifying cross country. Later that afternoon she returned solo and reported over Ashford. I passed the joining information and asked her report field in sight. Quite a time passed and no report came so I asked her if she could see the field to which she said no. I then said can you see the power station ( Dungeness ) to which she said yes. So I told her to fly towards the power station and that the field is about a mile before it. She called at the power station but I still couldnt see her so I said report final for RW22. When she called final I still couldnt see her so I asked her to confirm it was 22. After a short while she said it was 28! I told her she was at Manston and not to land. She got vectors to Lydd and asked me to sign her form!! Tears and sympathy followed. So, yes they stood out like tits on a fish
