Seems to me a string of Airbus 300 accidents in Asia, last few years. Of course all were in go-around mode, in weather. Some problem with extreme angle of attack and stalling.

Of course most were with China Airlines (ten times the average for incidents) and could have been pilot error: one case in Japan, one in Taipei. Any comments?

One was pilot error, engaging TOGA (Take Off Go Around) mode by mistake during final approach, unknowingly.

I'm not familiar with those accidents as I'm not in the aviation field.

Just a rudimentary knowledge from some basic aeronautics classes, being an Air Force Brat, and some liquid flow knowledge from Sonar School,
