Thanks for the comments,

I've always been taught that declaring an emergency guarantees you a clear runway, downgrading to a non emergency to me feels like you're waisting that resource which was already in play.

I'd cancel an emergency, after an emergency descent when everything is ok for instance, that makes sense.

on the MD80 they used to tell us, if you only have one left of something, you are on an emergency
