an F-18 landing on an aircraft carrier however...(or any other a/c landing on a carrier with a hook) does go to max thrust at touchdown incase they miss the wire, but that's coz there's not time to react if they waited to find out
Are you maybe confusing it with that? As commercial a/c are producing still quite a bit of thrust on final approach, they will spool up to max power for a go around fairly quickly, might take a bit longer if the engines had been back at idle though, but I have witnessed an A320 go around after not touching down half way along a very short runway in a snowstorm, and it climbed away very quickly I assure you!
