Thanks for the input guys

I guess my question is a bit like asking "how long is a piece of string?". However in the event that the g/a is called by the PIC because the aircraft has inappropriate speed or height to safely continue the approach, what do you consider to be the main reasons for getting into this situation?

Please don't think I'm on a finger pointing exercise, I understand totally that g/a's are a very positive thing from a flight safety aspect and i'm not really concerned with the procedure itself. I'm more interested in the possible Human Factors issues that lead up to the event. Kinda just want some food for thought (I'm lacking inspiration!)
