To get back to your original posting DWR; we don't use a higher power setting to arrest a sink rate before a G/A is started. In fact the power is only secondary in a G/A with a big jet. On the sim we used to do this demo for peolpe conveting from props: Go around without changing the pitch and just add power. You'd hit the ground around the touchdownpoint with a speed well above you threshold speed. Then Goaround without power and just pitch up. You'd hear the stall warning depending on the weight a some two to three hundred feet above DA/DH. This was to demonstrate the importance of pitch in a G/A
