https://avherald.com/h?article=5204722a&opt=0A Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-800, registration N8302F performing flight WN-1436 from Austin,TX to Orlando,FL (USA) with 178 people on board, was on final approach to Orlando's runway 36L when the crew initiated a go around advising ATC they had an indication in the cockpit and climbed the aircraft to 5000 feet. The crew subsequently requested delay vectors while working checklists. Finally, about 20 minutes after the go around, the crew advised they needed to do an alternate flaps extension, would be landing with flaps at 15 degrees and told ATC: "you can have the fire trucks roll". The aircraft subsequently landed on runway 34L at a higher than normal speed (about 170 knots over ground) about 30 minutes after the go around.
A passenger reported the aircraft went around, the crew announced an issue with the flaps.
The aircraft returned to service about 18 hours after landing.
