"They've done studies on stress and found that night carrier landings increase a pilot's heart rate more than any other flight task"

"The Navy wired up some pilots to measure heart rate, respiration, etc. during flights over North Vietnam to get some indication of the level of stress in combat. What they found was that the most stressful experience came after the combat mission when it concluded with a night carrier landing."

The three best things in a pilot's life are a good landing, a good orgasm, and a good bowel movement. The night carrier landing is one of the few opportunities in life where you get to experience all three at the same time.
Been there!
