he did not land "wrong", the tower cleared him to land, and had forgotten
about the one waiting for take off clearance.. sitting in the Position and

Always a good idea to approach the runway, or stop at the hold line, at an
angle that allows you a clear view of final. When I am done doing my run
up,
and I call tower and am rolling up, I do kind of an 'S' turn so I can see
for myself that there is nothing there. And I look both ways before going
out onto the runway. Yes, planes do land the wrong way occasionally, even
at
a towered facility.
