24.01.2022 There's a Part III now!

12.01.2022 Emirates 777 Preliminary Report: "... the Aircraft runway awareness advisory system (RAAS) aural message LONG LANDING, LONG LANDING was annunciated. "... the Aircraft became airborne in an attempt to go-around and was subjected to a headwind component until impact. "... The Aircraft reached a maximum height of approximately 85 feet RA at 134 knots IAS, with the landing gear in transit to the retracted position. The Aircraft then began to sink back onto the runway. Both crew...members recalled seeing the IAS decreasing and the Copilot called out Check speed. At 0837:35, three seconds before impact with the runway, both thrust levers were moved from the idle position to full forward. The autothrottle transitioned from IDLE to THRUST mode. Approximately one second later, a ground proximity warning system (GPWS) aural warning of DON’T SINK, DON’T SINK was annunciated. "... One second before impact, both engines started to respond to the thrust lever movement showing an increase in related parameters."
