Wow. That plane should not have flown.

It's not obvious. One wing, going fast enough, will generate a certain
amount of lift, maybe enough to hold the plane up. Remember the pilot
beating himself up for crossing the threshold at 250 kts rather than 120 kts
like he was trained. The issue in my mind was how much aileron was
availble to fly the plane, assuming that just about all that was left was
being used to keep the roll axis right.
