What a scary prospect if this was indeed what happened,
you press the TOGA and then u get FIRE WARNING Bells....

Great job by the entire crew for getting everybody on the ground safe

You probably find it hard to find another situation recently that the crew decided to abort a missed approach...The decision to abort the GO Around this morning may have in fact saved many lives.

Granted you may get enough thrust off one engine thats surging to continue with the missed approach, but TWO surging engines, can anyone shed some light if the 800 is able to perform adequately in this situation...The commanders decision this morning has saved any lives in my opinion.

if this a/c was climbing with a positive rate before the second surge, raising the gear could have proved catastrophic.

Well Done All
