Aircraft
During approach; at Glide Slope intercept altitude; First Officer called for Flaps 22. After positioning flap handle; we received 'Flap Fail' message on EICAS. Flaps were still at 9 degrees. We told Tower we were going missed. Tower assigned an altitude and issued vectors to allow us to sort things out. We ran the QRC and discussed who should fly the approach. First Officer said he had never actually flown a no-flap landing; so in the interest of safety the Captain took over as FP. We declared an emergency with Tower and landed normally.
The additional landing distance required was not an issue because the runway was 11;000+ feet long. Even though the ATIS reported BKN007; we saw the airport clearly and unobstructed from a 4 mile final.
EMB-145LR flight crew reported trailing edge flaps failed when commanded to Flaps 22. They executed a go-around; ran the procedure; declared an emergency; and executed a safe landing.
