A question for Airbus pilots:
If flown manually with autothrust ON, and you decide to go-around but forget to push the TOGA-buttons, merely pushing the throttles forward ( old habits by PF from former type?), what is the result?
Will the aircraft increase its AoA until alpha-floor is reached, still descending due to lack of thrust, after which the alpha-prot. is activated and go-around thrust is delivered? Alas, maybe in this case too close to the ground?
Result is a high decend rate with very high AoA, high-energy on the engines and a maybe very confused crew?
haven't touched a sidestick in 7 years now so please pardon me if talking complete rubbish.
