No Kidding? We flew up to near the Arctic Sea with takeoff and landings in sub-zero weather and lots of ice. I have never landed without knowing it happened until I flew with a Russian pilot.
And remember how they always applaud the pilot for the landing? I do so love flying Russian.

The Aeroflot flight that I'll never forget was the one from
Tashkent to Leningrad. When we de-planed, we noticed
a watermelon-sized hole that was punched into the fuselage.
Not a comforting sight!
