## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GROUNDED: AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED INBOUND TO DFW DUE TO THE FLIGHT CREW REPORTING THAT A FLIGHT CONTROL FLAPS LOCKED - ALIGNMENT FAULT ECAM MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON FINAL APPROACH WHEN SELECTING FLAPS 2. FLIGHT CREW ACCOMPLISHED THE ECAM PROCEDURE AND LANDED SAFELY AT DFW WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. MAINTENANCE ACCOMPLISHED A RESET OF THE WING TIP BRAKE SYSTEM PER AMM 27-50-00 AND THE MESSAGE CLEARED. A SATISFACTORY OPERATIONAL CHECK OF THE FLAP SYTEM WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITH NO DEFECTS NOTED.
