PBY and others.
Oldkingcoal, votex et al have repeatedly said that Fly dubai do NOT do dual autopilot approaches, they would NOT have done a single autopilot approaches. In this case the captain (That's the guy who on this occasion was in the left seat) would have flown the approach manually using the HUD.
Therefore there was no autopilot go around. At the very least the initial part of the go around would therefore have been flown manually.
Please take this into consideration when putting forward your non type rated theories.

From the possible translation theories could this strange word refer to the VS thumbwheal. Which would match the description of the "thing on a computer mouse"?

Could you expand on the statement refering to stall and wing drop by MAK?
