I was thinking about something this morning...
In my life I've flown approximately 60 round trips times. In this time I've had 1 pressurisation failure causing a return to base and 2 go arounds*
I was wondering if other people could quickly reply with their experiences? - maybe I'm higher than other people.. maybe some people have flown 200 times and never done as much as go-around..?
*I know a go-around isn't in anyway an 'incident', just more looking for something that happened during the flight that wasn't plain uneventful. - perhaps for the purposes of this we shoudn't include weather go-arounds - unless you engine scraped that is!.

I've had 169 flights with 1 go-around and 1 dispatch witth inoperative pressurization (not counting intentional wierdness as part of my work).

Out of 643 flights I have had one aborted takeoff (no explanation from the crew) and two aborted landings (one for fog and one for construction equipment on the runway).
