On the Airbus you dont need to go-around climbing at full rated power at 6000 fpm just for a few thousand feet and then brutaly level of at your go-aruond altitude like a rollercoaster.
If you are discontinuing your approach above the thrust reduction altitude, you just push the thrust levers into TOGA briefly to put the beast into go around mode, and than inmediatly pull back the levers into the climb detend to fly the missed.
Thats the logic behind the G/A mode.
Never flew a Boeing but I am sure its G/A logic its also preatty clever.Thing is, with a little bit of basic system knowledge you can also make a go-around without getting everyone airsick if youre flying the Airbus.
