No, they cannot, except under ideal conditions, and sometimes not even then.

They do not have too. They only need to get the aircraft close enough
for wing dihedral to do the rest. Its called a dynamically stable
aircraft design, and its been a cornerstone of aviation almost since

My thoughts exactly.

That's funny, by your theory, stable flight was impossible until the
