And it also wouldn't be the first time a go around has been initiated without pressing the TOGA switches, especially by ex-Airbus pilots, although I'm not saying that's the case here. I've seen it happen several times in the simulator: pilot pushes up thrust levers to commence a go around (without pressing TOGA), calls for Flaps 20, positive climb, gear up, meanwhile pilot takes hands off thrust levers and the thrust comes back to idle. Oops...
That is why I started to always say "Go-around, TOGA, Flaps 20". Not exactly SOP but the sim instructor can debrief it later as the only minor issue on the properly flown go-around procedure.
