Tee Emm and Capn Bloggs-

Or the Captain, as pilot monitoring could have said "GO AROUND" when they got the EGPWS.

or he could have said "I have CONTROL"

I don't know if the weather conditions were so bad to preclude he FO from flying the sector or if the company SOPS had any ruling on weather conditions precluding the FO from landing.

The fact that the captain wasn't the pilot flying should have given him the situational awareness to see when the approach was going pear shaped and called for the go around.

That would still be acting like a Captain would it not?
