'fraid not - only memories of Jav 9's starting their take off runs heading the opposite way , wheeling round at high speed on the piano keys to launch down the runway with a few extra knots built up . That and a Caledonian Britannia landing short and emerging nose down from the dust to thump down safe on the runway threshold.
