flaps again
My examiner called the no flap landing an emergency procedure.
From the Pilot/Controller Glossary: EMERGENCY- A distress or an urgency condition. DISTRESS- A condition of being threatened by serious and/or imminent danger and of requiring immediate assistance. URGENCY- A condition of being concerned about safety and of requiring timely but not immediate assistance; a potential distress condition. So I would say that the inability to extend flaps would be considered an emergency only if it puts you in serious or imminent danger, or causes you to be concerned about safety.
