And didn't Dan Air land at the former RAF Nutts Corner on approach to Belfast (Aldergrove) back in the eighties. Again, there were a number of incidents when pilots confused the runways of RAF St. Athan and Cardiff (Rhoose) which had parallel runways a few miles apart, the visual clue was the cement works in between the two, so for St. Athan they needed to be on the right. Also I have a feeling Air Malta had a problem at Gatwick over confusion between the runway and parallel taxiway, again in the eighties.
