Lots of ppl do it after arrival in Gibraltar flying GB Airways usually for the following reasons:

Flight actually on time

No low cloud and visibility good enough for approach

Pilots manage to avoid ships in the bay

Road actually closed and no stray cars - people -footballs hit during touch down

Pilots managed to stop aircraft rolling of end of runway and into water

Breaking of aircraft on landing not gut wrenching - which sometimes it is

Sandwiches actually editable - not always the case!
