The TCX incident was essentially a failure to use automation (specifically, going around without selecting G/A) and the resulting poor execution of the manoeuvre, leading to increased workload for the crew and a loss of situational awareness.

Tha AAIB didn't see fit to make any Safety Recommendations, so it's hard to see what, other than the operator's proposal to review their go-around training, needs to change.
