Out of fuel, and at night. Someone had a bad day.

No lighting, vectored to the wrong runway twice.

They landed off airport, at night in Africa, and lived to tell the tale. I would say it was a good day.... :-)

Mr. C
Any landing you walk away from is a good landing!
Any landing you can use the airplane again was a great landing!
