Oh My God,
Saab, You must be so GREEN you don't need to dress up on St Pat's. I haven't read the full thread, (I was in Europe), but I hope this is a joke. Please tell me it is a spoof. If a less than full flap landing made you start this thread , well, I hope I never fly on one of your planes.
I won't get into my war stories, but I will say that I have my own NTSB report on file, and I never even considered it to be a big deal. Oh, and the last engine failure I had, the controller insisted, and did declare an emergency for "us". I even let the FO land it because it was his first.. True..

Not getting on how it was handled, definitely a declared emergency. Just that I don't think it was worthy of a thread, but hey, I remember my first, and it was pretty exciting.

As a Private: crack in a cylinder doing T&G's
As an Instructor:
2 engine failures, in a 172, on the same flight
door popped open in a 310 with an MEI student...he hung on for dear life while I took the controls and diverted (yeah, it wasn't pretty...)
As an FO:
knock on wood, only thing that's made my stomach uneasy so far was a "Service Door" caution msg at 200' on the T/O
