Bloggs / Morton, et al,

e.g. BAe146 immediate return with total electrical failure at dusk, low cloud, and snow. (Total as in 'total', nil, zip, nothing.)

Also, related to this thread was the 146 which suffered a failure of an engine rear bearing, shaft shear, and uncontained turbine disc - maintenance misunderstanding.
The crew successfully managed the engine failure, adjacent engine failure / fire, with indications that a third engine had failed - no instruments / electrics. The consequential loss of all hydraulics, flaps, spoiler, airbrake, and no pitch trim. And, from extensive shrapnel damage, the loss of cabin pressure, two small fires in the cabin (no injuries), holes in the flaps, fuel tank, and main spar !
Landing on a long military runway which fortunately had a shallow lead-in taxiway providing a paved overrun area. (Mexico)

Celebrate - and learn from the successes.
