Hi DW,
was a complete fabrication of the press
I agree with you there.
The baulked landing procedure (Select TOGA power and rotate to 10 degs pitch) allows you to fly away from any attempted landing - even after touch down.

Some pilots seem to forget that the only thing that makes an aircraft climb is thrust (when you have no more kinetic energy to swap for height).
Why on earth they were so close to Alpha Max AND Low Height AND Idle Thrust is beyond me.
