Are you really stupid or just trolling ?
There is NO STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE for what happened in this case. Faced with an unpredictable and clearly unsafe condition the captain used his common sense and his Mk1 eyeball to deduce the safest solution to a potentally fatal situation.

He did the right thing in the circumstances which faced him and landed safely with no damage and no injuries to his passengers.
I just hope that you are not so bull-headed when something similar happens to you.
