To be honest this is probably more like other airlines than we have ever had so this is probably a small step in the right direction.

Just ignore J3C. He's another wannabe management stooge that is trying to convince himself that this place isn't going down the tubes.

Seems to me an ECAM announcing low hydraulic and then a test flight the next day would negate any fingers pointed at the crew.
I'm only curious as to who did the test flight. Seems most are done by fresh Captains on reserve instead of check airmen. Not the safety first choice IMO.
Not enough thought given to something happening after an untrained crew gets into a situation or even signs off a plane later found not to be airworthy.

The first flight had issues. Not questioning that. The crew did everything by the book. Let's just not all be so quick to say the plane had two hydraulic problems in a row.
