T/R's and go-arounds...

Attempting a go-around after T/R deployment? Definitely a heart-in-mouth desperation move methinks.

Aaah...but if you can manage to get away with it...?

Here's one that tried – and sadly - failed:

11 February 1978; Pacific Western Airlines Flight 314, a Boeing 737-200; Cranbrook Airport, Canada: The aircraft crashed after thrust reversers did not fully stow following a rejected landing that was executed in order to avoid a snowplow. The crash killed four of the crewmembers and 38 of the 44 passengers.

FWIW...
