If a monetary reward doesn’t create a safety issue for fuel planning, why would it create one for go-around decisions?
Because I have an input into how much fuel I carry but don’t have any control over whether I get a visual reference at minima or a runway blocked at a late stage? If ATC call for a GA, can I say negative, bonus in play? A GA decision is rule based, pretty black-and-white; fuel carriage over flight plan is more nuanced and affected by a wide range of factors.
