Source for airport incidents on a specific day?

Hello, just wondering if there's a way to access succinct data for something like exactly how many GA's happened at an airport on a specific day. Not anywhere near all of them get into CADORS.

Go-arounds.

ATC doesn't record go-arounds due to low-vis conditions. So if you're wondering how many aircraft went around due to poor weather, you won't be easily able to find that information. We will record go-arounds for other non-weather related reasons (unstable approaches, preceding aircraft has not vacated the runway in time, etc).

The easiest thing I can think of it to look at the ADSB exchange archive playback, and watch the airport in question to see how many aircraft go around.

Thanks for the reply. Nav Can stated they can't provide it without a data access agreement- a pricey proposition!
The ADSB exchange is a good idea, just have to do some manual observation. I checked it out and pretty much got the info I was looking for. Much appreciated.

Happy New Year!
