Narrative:
While performing the published VOR runway 13L approach at jfk, we received 4 or 5 TCASII RA warnings during descent from the FAF (cri) altitude of 1500 ft MSL to the MDA of 1013 ft MSL. We followed each RA by climbing as directed on the eadi until the RA disappeared. However, the series of climbing maneuvers left us too high for a safe landing, resulting in a go around. The following VOR runway 13L approach was uneventful. Jfk tower reported no traffic in our vicinity during the time of the RA warnings.

Title: FLC OF AN MLG MADE GAR AFTER CLBING ABOVE THE GS DUE TO TCASII RA'S.
Narrative: WHILE PERFORMING THE PUBLISHED VOR RWY 13L APCH AT JFK, WE RECEIVED 4 OR 5 TCASII RA WARNINGS DURING DSCNT FROM THE FAF (CRI) ALT OF 1500 FT MSL TO THE MDA OF 1013 FT MSL. WE FOLLOWED EACH RA BY CLBING AS DIRECTED ON THE EADI UNTIL THE RA DISAPPEARED. HOWEVER, THE SERIES OF CLBING MANEUVERS LEFT US TOO HIGH FOR A SAFE LNDG, RESULTING IN A GAR. THE FOLLOWING VOR RWY 13L APCH WAS UNEVENTFUL. JFK TWR RPTED NO TFC IN OUR VICINITY DURING THE TIME OF THE RA WARNINGS.
