It always amused me how many of my RAF colleagues didn't like night flying in the Bulldog even on cloudless nights with a full moon.

Yet they all seemed happy to fly an instrument approach to 200' DH in thick cloud
Yes but if the fan fails at 300' at least when you break cloud you can see where you are going to die. Psychological thing you see.

I would second the moonlit night scenario, not so bad then.
