Narrative:

Had a flap asymmetry when raising flaps from 8 degrees to 0 degrees. Declared an emergency, then flew a no-flap approach and landing into clt. Landing and taxi in were uneventful. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated the cause of the asymmetry shutoff was unknown as we departed the station almost immediately on another flight. The reporter said this was the first asymmetry shutoff experienced on this type aircraft and is a very reliable system.
