@gatbusdriver; agreed. Good post.
I for one have now started briefing the actual go-around actions, pitch, flap selections, calls etc. for both myself and PNF instead of simply trotting out the G/A routing. I already feel more prepared as a result.
I am also making an effort to do raw data approaches whenever possible, (though not after a 10 hour night flight yet !).
As I and others have said on this thread, in our SIMs nowadays there seems to be too much emphasis on new SOP's, new company procedures, (such as the F/O starting the second engine during taxy out); and the basic motor responses are not being practised enough.
