Hi,
I've always been wondering what would happen if the aircraft became unstable and had to go around after the minimums in a (for example) CAT I GA 5.0% approach. Because if you fly the 5.0% it reckons you go around at minimums as the latest altitude, and from there make it over the terrain, right? So what would happen if you would for example float over the TDZ and HAVE to go around? Is it just TOO late, or is it still possible to be assured terrain clearance?
