If they believe that, why don't they just fly the thing in with one wing low?
Because they believe the airplane will do it when required ...

Regardless, there are a number of misconceptions regarding the airplane as witnessed by the 2000+ posts on the TAM accident, many of which did not indicate understanding of the airplane, (while some, I hasten to add, revealed an astonishing depth of understanding which benefitted us all - thinking of ELAC here among others). I can see why though...the airplane itself takes a good six months to a year to get accustomed to and perhaps the same amount of time to get to the stage of "strapping it on" and even then, one may not be aware of all the C* law nuances.
