Prepared?

Quote from post 63

... when flying an approach to weather minimums crews should have briefed both the approach AND potential missed, and that the PF should at least have mentally gone over the missed approach (go around) procedures ..



Uhhm, shouldn't you always brief and be prepared for a missed approach, right down to the moment of touching down successfully in the touchdown zone?

Many posters seem to prepare themselves for a Go Around only when the weather is close to minimums, or are they just a little unclear in conveying their ideas?
