FIRST EVER (LIVE) DREAMLIFTER GO AROUND?

Anchorage Airport was busy this week with the Boeing DreamLifter moving between Nagoya and Charleston via ANC (tech) with Parts for the Dreamliner.
Conditions for this (7R) approach were pretty tricky with variable, gusting conditions. By the time this guy was lined-up, winds had switched and they were fighting a ten knot tailwind! I’m led to believe that’s the maximum Tailwind landing speed for the 747 🤔 Anyhoo, N780BA returned for a successful 33 Approach and Landing.

Is this the first time a DreamLifter has been caught on film executing a Missed Approach/Go Around 🤷🏼‍♂️
