Baulked landing

A go-around should not be a difficult or unusual manoeuvre but a BAULKED LANDING is! In the former the donks are spooled up ready to go whereas in the latter they may in flight idle , or even worse, ground idle. Even if the shiny levers have been pushed forward it can seem like an eternity before any useful thrust is produced. Different ball game altogether.
