B727 FLC DECLARES EMER WITH UNSAFE LEADING EDGE DEVICE INDICATION ON APCH TO STL.

Narrative

INTO APCH AT ST LOUIS; WE LOWERED THE FLAPS TO FLAPS 2 DEGS. WE GOT THE AMBER LIGHT ON THE FRONT PANEL FOR FLAPS; AND CHK ON FE PANEL. #2 SLAT INDICATED IT DID NOT COME DOWN. WE GOT THE CHKLIST OUT. WE WERE HANDED OVER TO TWR. TOLD TWR OF OUR PROB; AND THAT WE NEEDED DELAY VECTORS TO DO THE CHKLIST. WE GOT OUT THE EMER CHKLIST -- ONE LEADING EDGE DEVICE INOP CHKLIST. WE DID IT; TOLD APCH WE WERE READY TO COME BACK; AND THAT WE HAD TO DECLARE AN EMER AS PER COMPANY PROCS; AND HAD EQUIP STANDING BY. GAVE THEM SOULS ON BOARD; FUEL; HAZMAT INFO. LNDG WENT FINE. AFTER TAXI IN; WE LEFT FLAPS AT 15 DEGS; SO WE COULD SEE VISUALLY; AFTER WE PARKED; WHAT TRUE POS SLAT #2 WAS IN. WELL; SLAT #2 WAS IN THE PROPER POS AFTER ALL. WE CYCLED THE FLAPS THERE ON GND 3 TIMES. SLAT #2 WORKED GREAT EACH TIME; BUT WITH AMBER LIGHT; AND FE SHOWED SLAT #2 WAS NOT DOWN IN PROPER POS. MECH WORKED ON IT AND GOT IT FIXED. AFTER ALL PAPERWORK DONE; WE WENT ON AND TO TOLEDO; OH. ALL I CAN SAY; MY CREW DID A GREAT JOB WORKING TOGETHER TO RESOLVE THE PROB; DO THE CHKLIST; GET THE PLANE ON THE GND.
