@Winnerhofer:

From the paper you just linked -

“Go ahead, you have the controls. We are still in TOGO eh.” TOGO, short for ‘touch and go’ refers to a process of regaining lift at low altitude, something that occurs when a pilot suddenly abandons a landing and reinitiates ascent of the aircraft at the last possible moment.
Ouch. More research required.
