Looking at the "Facts" posted above, I see no mention of the word "Flaps."

We an speculate till the cows come home about what "Noticed a difference between what they saw and what they expected to see" means.

After an incident it is normal company policy to suspend the pilots. No assumption of guilt can be made from that suspension. To quote.

When an Accident or Incident is to be investigated the entire crew will be automatically
withdrawn from flying duty. This will ensure that all Crew Members are:

a. Rested from any operational pressures, particularly in the event
of any trauma, perceived or not, resulting from the accident.

b. Available for a medical examination, primarily for the benefit of
the Crew Member.

c. Able to complete the necessary reports and/or provide
statements regarding the accident or incident.

d. Available to assist the Investigation Teams.
The incident relates to an airline called "Open Skies" and not an airline called "British Airways."
