This is somewhat embarrassing; i remember a story from the good old days in the USofA in Huntsville, AL; VERY LARGE airport and massive parallel runways with terminal in the middle. When pilots were cleared to land on 36L coming from the East, they were landing on the taxiway of 36R....
The officials toured all the operators implicated on these mishaps, reminding gently that a runway has BIG F.. Numbers on it....
