I have not seen many go-arounds at Brum. The atcos seem to use quite big gaps as there are no RETs and aircraft have to exit the runway quite slowly as a number of the perpendicular turn offs also have marked down hill gradients. An A320 last year left the paved surface after trying to make a turn at too high a speed.
The last go around I saw was because the surface movement radar has detected an animal crossing the touchdown zone of 15!
