True the equipment is very reliable, but failures are essentially random so though years may go by between failures on average, it's possible for only a day to go by before one. You can choose to remain current with emergency procedures either by reviewing and practicing procedures on your own, or by taking recurrency classes. Failures are really rare in commercial passenger airline operations too, but pilots are required to undergo recurrency training twice a year anyway.
