After applying TOGA during a go-around, which action best describes the intended flight path management?

• A. Re-intercept the flight path or ILS as required
• B. Increase bank angle to 30 degrees
• C. Immediately land on the runway
• D. Reduce power to idle and pitch down

Answer: (A)

When TOGA is applied during a go-around, the aim is to establish a positive climb quickly and return to the cleared trajectory. The best action is to re-intercept the flight path or the ILS as required. This means continuing climb with the engines at TOGA power and guiding the aircraft back onto the previously cleared route, or capturing the localizer/glideslope if an ILS is being flown. The other options would hinder a proper go-around: delaying the climb by reducing thrust, or attempting to land immediately, or banking aggressively without regard to intercept goals. The emphasis is on restoring and following the intended path as soon as possible.
