OPINION: Why go-arounds may need simplifying post-EK521

If the cockpit alarm, warning of a long landing, proves to have been the trigger event for the go-around, investigators will have to explore the decision process that led the crew to abort touchdown when some 3km of runway remained.

Countless accidents have resulted from crews' failing to conduct a missed approach in the face of an unstable approach.

The Emirates probe might need to look not just at whether the go-around should have been better-handled, but whether it was even necessary at all.
