Startle factor now recognised as pertinent ; 'are you ready ? ' plus take a deep breath for a 'high altitude ' go around now recommended . Not really keen on over criticising post event flight crews but this is not impressive nevertheless . Significant difference between Airbus and Boeing types but Aviate , Navigate, Communicate (ANC) is the Airbus (now) mantra which applies to Boeing as well albeit different . Company issues ref job etc should not be a factor for professional and appropriate conduct unfortunately missing in this case . Report is a horror story and regardless of seniority number the LHS competency is not at the level required. All engine go arounds continue to cause industry wide problems so will probably appear as an exercise within ATQP sessions more frequently . Sobering and thought provoking post - mortem in and out of TC undoubtedly .
