When you exceed the speed that flaps can be safely deployed, they retract. It simulates the pilot pulling the flaps up to prevent damage.
When 190 flaps are down you cannot see them. They are split flaps, and drop from the underside of the wings. Try looking at the plane when it's on the ground, and then drop your flaps. You'll see where they are, and why you don't see it from the cockpit.
