I was re watching a film on Youtube the other night re carrier based fliers and one of the pilots said he could never get used to night landings.

Day or night, both scare hell out of me! I like my runways to stay in one place while I'm attempting a landing!
Landing on tiny sand bars strewn with rocks, in Alaska in a little tail dragger, is wild enough for me, but at least the sand bar stays put! My hat is off to those carrier pilots! That makes standing in front of a charging cape buffalo child's play IMO! Just imagine trying to stay above stall speed,with a nose up attitude, adjusting to whipping wind, and trying to hit a simultaneous main gear touch down on a pitching deck, in time to catch the tail hook on the cables,Then add night vision! Talk about a dangerous GAME!
