macdo / tubby: the airbus drill is bit different. Stand up first, then conf change followed by TOGA. (checked the book right now).
Volume: the problematics explained so well is PLENTY of power, but automatics / guidance still aimed to land. Does not apply here. Their automatics were off by the nature of the landing done, but not enough thrust... The "touch-and-go" is "land, then roll quite a bit, and takeoff": no way to fool WoW there. (red herring anyway)
