Why the reference to 747?...Why don't I refer to a go around at EGLL with heliroute traffic and wx avoidance on the other RW...it's irrelivant but if you haven't tried it.....

However, executing a go-around by applying full power, controlling the pitch up (in a 152) removing drag flap, stabilising the climb attitude and trimming off the resultant stick forces, accelerating to safe speed to clean up remaining flaps, whilst flying over a cleared area (ie the aerodrome and climbout lane) is the basis of normal circuit flying. Now try adding a turn into this and it is easy to see how the situation can quickly become unsafe.
Exactly my point! If the pilot is unready for this, why is he going solo?
