From my perspective, there is a lack of understanding about how to deal with an unstabilized approach when being very close to the ground. You really need kinetic energy to execute a go around.

This works well when there is no windshear. Something that have in common the accident of Asiana in San Francisco and the accident of Emirates in Dubai is that both Captains decided to go around very close to th
