nothing unusual about go-arounds, busier you are, tighter the gaps, more chance it just doesnt work-or crew may not have been happy with the final phase of the approach-does happen!

Thread was moved here at 1932Z by senior modbod. Since then 'Reminder 2' is in force.
If any of our children would like the thread copied to JB so they can be witty and clever with it there, let me know. Otherwise 2 options:
Answer the question or leave it alone

757pilot - Don't know for sure but would suspect it was down to aircraft ahead still on runway. The weather was good today and they are usually on ILS when 27 is in use so unlikely to be an alignment issue.

reasons for go-around
i catered that aircraft today, was concerned to the reasons for its go-around, maybe it was getting confirmation by the tower over its landing gear (but that sounds too serious and there was no big deal). I reckon it just had a bad approach and so carried out a missed approach. The thomson fly wasnt late and no probs were reported on ground that i know of.

757Pilot, it was the 757 not the 763.
No problems with the gear/"bad approach"/ATC etc...
The go-around was due to a large flock of crows on short finals.

P.S. Such a shame when people try to be funny and fail.

Ah good so the go-around was nothing to "crow" about? 
ps Its nice to see a question asked and answered nicely - even though I myself have been in umpteen goarounds, they still pike my interest too when I see them occur
