I am SLF

many landings at Wick in Viscounts - a great plane.

Once after 3 attempts to come in upwind over the fields of Caithness we were on a divert to Orkney because of poor visibility ahead, we could see the airfield but .......

Anyway the pilot did a downwind landing from the sea , guess the fog was on the other end of the runway. It was quite breezy and an experience; never landed downwind since. [that I know off]
