Go Arounds should not be dangerous and should especially be part of the repertoire of any commercial pilot. Not only practiced in the sims regularly but perhaps it's time to practice them in real planes (without passengers) on a regular basis .

Nobody does touch and go training anymore in real planes on a regular basis?

Badly done they result in crashes. This one was badly done:

This is much better:

Should be a piece of cake. And if it's not it should be.
