Narrative:

Cleared visual approach to runway 8L in atl behind a GA bizjet. I was giving IOE to a transitioning first officer. Spacing was close, but acceptable for atl visual operations. I told the first officer to prepare for a possible go around because of the spacing and the fact that the bizjet would have to make a 90 degree left turn off of the runway. Sure enough, he was too slow to clear. We started a go around at approximately 100 ft AGL, first officer was flying. During the power application, the first officer overboosted both engines and I did not notice it until 11 seconds later, setting climb power. We returned for an uneventful approach to landing.

Title: MD88 FO, GETTING IOE, OVERBOOSTED BOTH ENGS ON A GAR AT ATL.

Narrative: CLRED VISUAL APCH TO RWY 8L IN ATL BEHIND A GA BIZJET. I WAS GIVING IOE TO A TRANSITIONING FO. SPACING WAS CLOSE, BUT ACCEPTABLE FOR ATL VISUAL OPS. I TOLD THE FO TO PREPARE FOR A POSSIBLE GAR BECAUSE OF THE SPACING AND THE FACT THAT THE BIZJET WOULD HAVE TO MAKE A 90 DEG L TURN OFF OF THE RWY. SURE ENOUGH, HE WAS TOO SLOW TO CLR. WE STARTED A GAR AT APPROX 100 FT AGL, FO WAS FLYING. DURING THE PWR APPLICATION, THE FO OVERBOOSTED BOTH ENGS AND I DID NOT NOTICE IT UNTIL 11 SECONDS LATER, SETTING CLB PWR. WE RETURNED FOR AN UNEVENTFUL APCH TO LNDG.
