TAM Pilot

TAM pilot who landed on Congonhas the day before the disaster with a A320 with the two reversers working, said that the airplane acquaplaned three times in the runway very wet and heavy rain and that he was only able to brake on his fourth trial, about 200 or 300 meters from the end of the runway. He claims that he notified this to control tower.
