Of course, if needs be, touch down, power up and g/a. A g/a dosn't have to occur in the air
First of all I am not getting into a pecker swinging contest. This option may be available in a turbo prop, jets on the other hand may not have this option specifically at Lcy where a multitude of factors will be working against you i.e short field,full flap,speed brake, spoiler deployed and ofcourse the 5-8 second delay from idle to full power.
