Last year I had to execute one after the aircraft I was following failed
to maintain the proper speed to the runway and proceded to land short of
his designated "dot".

Bet he didn't get the "Good job" from the tower controller.

We were landing 27 and the other runway in use of 36.
I added power and pitched out to the north (left).


If you're landing 27 and you turn North, that's a right turn on my
compass. Were you landing on 9? That would make more sense.

Glad that your OSH go-around went ok. I've not had to do one yet but
have seen some rather interesting go-arounds while watching the arrival
show. The funny thing is that after listening to tower on the handheld
for some time, you get to the point where you can tell when the tower
controller is going to tell someone to go around.
