As for expectiong the plane crash... We know that there had already been a small plane crash, a sail boat, a slave ship, a group of scientist and a hot air ballon. If they didn't have some kind of plan for new arrivals I would be surprised.

You answered that question in your own sentence - we know that Ben knew about the hot air balloon because he chose Henry Gale's identity.
They were the ones who very likely killed him. So absolutely they have a plan for new arrivals, but as far as the Losties go it doesn't necessarily involve killing on arrival like they did to Henry Gale.

the Lost Experience revealed that Dharma was working to change the factors of the Valenzetti equation in order to postpone the date that humanity will destroy itself, maybe the Others are working to stop Dharma, which implies they want to hasten the date of humanity's end...

If you go read my spoiler post about the aftermath of the Lost Experience, there's a new clue that might tell you something interesting about that very subject.
I don't think they are hastening humanity's end, according to the Lost Experience they were working to make a virus that would kill 1/3 of the world in order to change the Valenzetti equation. We haven't seen any virus-related deaths so far, and in fact very few Losties have died since they were stranded.
I think if they were out to end the world they would not be having book clubs and fixing plumbing, baking muffins, living in a small city with houses and parks, having divorces and grooving to "Downtown". They are, however, waiting out the event to come, so that they can give birth to a new civilization.
