First go-around I experienced was in 1951 in an Argonaut at the "old" Rome airport (on the way back from Singapore) just after a massive thunderstorm. The captain didn't like the look of the amount of water.

When we eventually did land we had to stay in the aircraft for at least half an hour until they could get buses to us, there was so much water.

Since then? four I think, one of which was in a Morton Air Services Heron at Gatwick (1968).
