Is it too difficult to admit that another pilot did a great job without saying that the plane does are the "really" hard work?
IMO, the post you referred to was inaccurate. They would have been in Alternate Law, the plane can be stalled, they were ditching with slats only assuming only Blue hydraulics, all while making a first attempt at ditching a 140k glider!
Great job by the crew in the air and on the ground!
