Can't find it right away but will look more. There was a 737 (i think, maybe 727) where two flap drives failed at once and the asymmetric flap protection system, which only detected differences in flap position on the same side, did not detect anything wrong. Crew figured out the problem before it got out of hand, retracted flaps to where the airplane flew level, and landed.
