Well, for 230000kg, read about 46000kg and you might be a bit closer the mark (it's the TAM A320, not the AA B767. And its at empty weight, not MTOW). Also, it's not lifting the whole weight - most of the weight will continue to be borne by the main wheels.

Was in Florianopolis not three weeks ago. Sigh!
