Two lessons he
1) If the field is really at minimums, you have 200 feet to slow down to
landing speed. That is not much time. Better you should be ready to land
before you break out.
2) If you decide to go missed, then go missed. Don't change your mind just
because you got a glimpse of the runway as you were flying overhead.

I like to fly the ILS at or near the suggested climb speed in the 210 that
comes out to be around 110kts using 10deg.flaps and gear down. Reasons are
that in the case of a go around the transition from approach attitude to
climb attitude is less of a change and the accelerations induced are
minimal,. If anyone here has gone missed in the soup from minimal airspeed
to a steep climb under hard acceleration I would suspect the effect to be
disorienting at the least. Anything I can do to reduce unnecessary
accelerations and maneuevers in IFR conditions seems to be a good thing.
Slowing down from MDA shoulden't be a problem since most airports with ILS
are usually long enough, full flaps, throttle back, and allow the plane to
land. Sometimes there is a tendency on breaking out to try and force the
plane down. I would be more concerned with speed control on a circling
approach to minimums on a dark night with a crosswind.
