Almost 20 years ago, my newhire sim partner was a FO on a COEX Brasilia that did the exact same thing to the same airport. Said it was a clear night,, center was pushing them to call the field for a visual. The saw the wrong one and landed. He was on probation and never got his job back. Feel bad for the crew.
