BRIAN WILLIAMS, anchor: The pilot and crew of a Delta commuter flight are getting high marks following an emergency landing over the weekend, all of it captured on a passenger's video camera. The flight out of Atlanta had stuck right landing gear, but veteran pilot Jack Conroyd brought it in safely at New York's JFK , while out the window sparks were seen flying. Sixty-four people aboard, not a scratch on one of them. When the pilot's mom was told the news, she appropriately called her son a hero.
