I was on the AA 2227. They had a flap issue after takeoff. Would not fully retract. They circled around to burn fuel to get below max landing weight. Landed without incident. Good job by the crew.

Couple of years ago coming into msy from Vegas, had the opposite… flaps would not open. Flew around the lake for a while to burn fuel and then landed from east to west at a stupid high speed. Destroyed the brakes on landing but all ended well.
