And whoops! I was counting times they came into sight of Thangorodrim.

They came within sight of the gates of Angband in the Dagor Aglareb, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, and the War of Wrath. The Dagor Aglareb actually says within sight of the gates of Angband, in the Nirnaeth elves got to Angaband's steps, so I assume it was within sight of the gates, and in the War of Wrath I'm also assuming some Vanyar and Noldor got within sight. Angband was destroyed in that battle, after all.
