The video is short, dark and, well, not really vivid.

But two things come across: first, the crazy sparks shooting up as the right wing of Delta Connection Flight 4951 hit the ground on its emergency landing Saturday night in New York; and second, the repeated firm voice of a flight attendant yelling, “Heads down, stay down,” until the plane stopped.

Malfunctioning landing gear forced the emergency landing and caused one wing to drag along the tarmac as the plane touched ground. An AP article reported this:

“I could feel the vibration, I could feel it bumping,” passenger Jamie Pfeiffer of Bridgewater, Conn., told the Journal News of White Plains about the right wing scraping the ground during the rough landing. “I heard a guy behind me say he saw sparks. The pilot was just awesome.”

Indeed. No one was injured. But the video shows that the flight crew, and in particular one female flight attendant, was also particularly “awesome.” Unwavering, calm and in control. As the plane touches ground and the sparks shoot up, her voice rises, ostensibly to ensure passengers do not start to move either in fear from the bumping or in haste, but she continues with her commanding “heads down, stay down” order. Her professionalism provides a lesson to so many passengers who think that flight attendants are primarily on board to serve us drinks.

Below is a video of the wing scraping along the tarmac and sending up sparks, as captured by a passenger and posted online by Daily News.
