I love a 747 in any shape form or fashion. I worked for the Boeing company for 13 years. When the go around was given she gracefully raised her nose to the heavens gathered up her landing gear and started a graceful right turn for her go around and when she did come in not a waver nor a wing dip nor any unsettled movements just the most minimal adjustment from the pilot she touched down once again. The 747 in any configuration is not the easiest aircraft to fly but you Mike Stone make it look like childs play. You are a damn good pilot sir...

Not sure, but the fuel cost alone is not trivial. Since the fuel burn is around 3000 gallons per hour (based on what I could find online) we can estimate that a go-around could consume 750 to1000 gallons of jet fuel if touchdown is 15 or 20 minutes later than expected. I think these jets tend to fly with three crew members on board, so that will add a little to the cost, and the maintenance per flight hour on this beast is not cheap.
