When I took over at LAX at 50 feet I should have been fired if I couldn't do a recovery properly. That is why we are captains. We are responsible for safety of flight. Taking over at 50 ft is quite easy if you know how to fly. I had an autopilot on an MD80 go out of control and disconnect with a 200 ft ceiling and we were at 300 ft so just readjusted everything, broke out and landed. The captain is always responsible so just fly the F airplane. That is what you get paid for. It shouldn't be that hard.
