Having flown both Boeing & Airbus, personally I find the Airbus Go-Around system much more intuitive and user friendly (although, even that isn't foolproof: Go-around event Melbourne Airport, Victoria 21 July 2007 ).

It is interesting that despite the normally static thrust levers, Airbus in their wisdom decided to utilise the instinctive method of power application to switch to GA mode.

The BEA did a study on GA accidents and incidents in 2013: Aeroplane State Awareness during Go-Around
