I would like to applaud hero pilot Capt. Jack Conroyd, who landed Delta Flight 4951 in a emergency landing at JFK with a gear malfunctioned and made a spectacular landing with remarkable skill and courage. This could have been a most serious disaster and many lives could have been lost. According to eye witness accounts there were flames and sparks flying from the landing gear. This, in my opinion, was nothing less than a miracle where the 60 passengers were saved. I think maybe though Captain Conroyd could have had a little help from above and that is could he have had an angel in the cockpit adding to a safe landing?
