I've never heard of someone being accused of being too conservative about declaring an emergency. Example: flaps jammed up. I declared. Sure, we practice no-flap landings in the sim and we had lots of runway (MCO)...but landing flaps up is still an abnormal situation in most Part 121 jets. If something went wrong, and I had said "nah, we don't need the equipment," etc, etc, guess who get's crucified in the investigation?
