The runway on the carrier is on heading 350, so it's best to land on
that heading as well.  You launch on heading 000 from the catapult.
As Stephen mentions, landing in the opposite direction doesn't
qualify.

I've always gone up, blasted the two migs (I normally start heading
back to the carrier and in a few seconds the second mig pops up on the
map), and then landed.  I haven't tried just flying around and landing
to see if that will qualify you as well.
