We had two failures inside 2 months a little over a year ago. The first was a gear failure. That scared us enough and then on descent to our base a few weeks later the critical engine gave up due to what we believe was water in the FCU (ran fine after replacing the FCU!). Imagine how I felt just after such an experience walking towards the staff canteen for a strong coffee to recover when the manager of the organisation chartering the aircraft runs up to me and asks just how soon can we go flying again today. Oh, throw in a bird strike for good measure in just about the same spot as the engine failure about two weeks after that memorable event. All this inside my first 1000 hours.
