A Malaysia Airlines Airbus A330-200 freighter on behalf of Turkish Airlines, registration 9M-MUC performing flight TK-6333 from Istanbul (Turkey) to Zurich (Switzerland), was on final approach to runway 14 when the crew went around from about 3000 feet MSL reporting they had a flaps lock indication. The aircraft climbed to 7000 feet and entered a hold to work the relevant checklists. The crew subsequently indicated they would perform a 0-flaps landing but were at very low weight. The aircraft positioned for another approach to runway 14 and landed safely at a higher than normal speed about 35 minutes after aborting the first approach.
