Gene and List,
How about this:
Maybe part of what makes real reel-reel flanging sound so good is tape 
saturation... which is a good-sounding kind of distortion, and both tape 
units will be distorting in similar fashion... unlike the nasty-sounding 
distortion that BBD's or digital delay units produce when 
overdriven. If the levels are well-matched then deep notches 
should be produced even when distorting...this is just a suggestion, I 
have absolutely no experimental evidence to back this up.... Any 
comments?
