Narrative:
The flight was scheduled from dtw-las. Upon climb out, the flap/slat disagreement problem was encountered. We leveled at 10000 ft, held over fwa. We worked the problem using established air carrier X procedures and then proceeded directly to msp. We flew a slat/no flap emergency approach into msp uneventfully. The reason we did not land sooner or closer was because we were too heavy to land until below 198000 pounds. So we were instructed by air carrier X that since we were too heavy to land at dtw or anywhere else close by, to proceed to msp.

Narrative: THE FLT WAS SCHEDULED FROM DTW-LAS. UPON CLBOUT, THE FLAP/SLAT DISAGREEMENT PROB WAS ENCOUNTERED. WE LEVELED AT 10000 FT, HELD OVER FWA. WE WORKED THE PROB USING ESTABLISHED ACR X PROCS AND THEN PROCEEDED DIRECTLY TO MSP. WE FLEW A SLAT/NO FLAP EMER APCH INTO MSP UNEVENTFULLY. THE REASON WE DID NOT LAND SOONER OR CLOSER WAS BECAUSE WE WERE TOO HVY TO LAND UNTIL BELOW 198000 LBS. SO WE WERE INSTRUCTED BY ACR X THAT SINCE WE WERE TOO HVY TO LAND AT DTW OR ANYWHERE ELSE CLOSE BY, TO PROCEED TO MSP.
