In case of go-around, the initial altitude loss and the time required for recovering the initial altitude are increased if airspeed is lower than the final approach speed and/or if thrust is not stabilized or set at idle.

Summary of Key Points
A deceleration below the final approach speed should be accepted only in the following cases:
.
GPWS terrain avoidance maneuver;
.
Collision avoidance maneuver; and,
.
Windshear procedure.
Nevertheless, in all three cases, the thrust levers must be advanced to the maximum thrust (i.e., go-around thrust) while initiating the maneuver.

Introduction
Factors that may contribute to approach-and-landing accidents include flight over hilly terrain, reduced visibility, visual illusions, adverse winds, contaminated runways and/or limited approach aids.
Flight crews should be aware of the compounding nature of these hazards during approach and landing.
Statistical data
Approach-and-landing is the most hazardous phase of any flight, as illustrated by the following data:
.
Over the past 40 years, approach-and-landing accidents accounted for 55 % of total hull losses.
This statistic does not show a downward trend.
.
The flight segment from the outer marker to the runway threshold averages only 4 % of flight time, but accounts for 45 % of hull losses.
Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3 illustrate the respective contributions of the factors involved in:
.
All approach-and-landing accidents;
.
CFIT events; and,
.
Runway excursions and overruns.
