The CIAIAC is also investigating another incident similar to the Spanair accident. On June 5, 2007, about 0945 universal coordinated time, a Boeing MD-83, registration EO-LMM, operated by MAP Jet as a charter flight, performed a takeoff without extended trailing edge flaps at Lanzarote Airport, Gran Canarie, Spain. According to the FDR data and pilot reports, the takeoff was performed without the proper takeoff configuration, and a TOWS warning was not annunciated to the flight crew during the event. The aircraft continued on its flight undamaged.
Although the above quote does not detail any of the similarities (or differences) between the MAP Jet and the Spanair flights such as gross weight, it appears that it really is possible to take off without flaps IF the crew flies the airplane off the runway instead of just pulling back and hoping for the best.
