Canonically, the Flood has not shown up.  In a number of places it's 
explicitly mentioned as having *not* happened, and the GMG timeline as 
well as all other sources generally assume an old-Earth chronology of 
Creation.  This brings with it the attendant impossibility of a Middle 
Eastern amateur shipbuilder collecting Europes- and Amazons- and 
Australias-full of breeding pairs of Earth's magnificent array of 
species, stuffing them and their nutritional needs in a wooden boat of 
any engineerable design for forty days, and releasing them back into 
the world with their unsustainable store of genetic diversity.
