I've never contemplated actually doing that so I've never even thought about it. ha. Whenever I think of a wrong flap setting, I think of that poor Delta flight in Dallas. The flaps and trims are one of those things I try to triple check before we takeoff.
Flaps 8 and 20 are both allowable setting for takeoff. However flaps 9, 10, 11, 12 ,13, etc, etc all the way to 20 are not. That is what would cause the warning. And usually going from 8 to 20 would cause a nose down movement. So yeah i am not to sure about the nose wheel bouncing report.
