Absolutely. Landing from the south (from Cook Straight) into Wellington on an Air New Zealand 733 about 10 years ago. As soon as I saw the (great) shots above, I thought of that landing and how I was watching the runway coming up from the side of the plane. It was awesome to experience.
Some of the other pax were less enthalled, I might add.
