The Airbus was out of its league. Having only spoilerons gives it a disadvantage. Once landing he would have easily run out of side stick control.
The 757 did a great landing not sure if he/she was within crosswind limitations. But if the pilot would have bent up the airplane then I’m sure management would throw them under the bus. They get nothing from management for getting it in. It’s their job after all.
Wonder what the other variables were?
Fuel limitations?
End of a 4 day?
Fatigued issues?
Hunger Issues?
Captain had to get home?
Was there any signs of “get there itis”?
Simply grading the landing is one thing. But if something had happened...the crew would have been in hot water. They might still be if they exceeded any company or aircraft limitations.
