I know it's posted under the wrong geographical forum but thought we would all find this interesting.

Very close call

Absolutely right, zero flaps. Not familiar with the NG 737 but seems out of place.

Yes there are flaps out and more importantly slats as wll...maybe a thrust setting problem....wonder if they changed the tires??? or their knickers?:}
