------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today´s question is another favorite of mine. What is reverse thrust and when do you use it?
Okay, I´ll break it down for you to the absolute basics.
Reverse thrust is used to slow down the aircraft on the runway after touchdown.
There are three main components which slow down the airplane on the runway:
Primary Braking with disc or carbon brakes similar to your car
Secondary with reverse thrust
Thrid with aerodynamical braking with the ground spoilers
So we have two words in reverse thrust.
“Reverse” cause the turbines output is being guided into the reverse direction and as you might not know we apply "thrust" in order to increase the braking action.
So let´s look at this video to see what happens at touch-down.
Here you can see engine number one of a Airbus A320. At touch-down these flaps open up, so called “reverser doors”. They act as guiding vanes in the mid section of the bypass-channel of the turbine and force the accelerated air of the fan to blow into the opposite direction.
Now these reverser doors don´t open automatically at touch-down, no you lift up these little levers which will activate the hydraulic system to apply pressure to the actuator which then opens the reverser doors. Keeping the levers in this position only give you “Idle reverse”, but as soon as you move the levers to the aft position, the engine will spool up creating more thrust increasing the reverse output. The engines will increase thrust up to 70% which then resembles in “Full reverse thrust”. I know it´s odd to think that you would apply thrust again just after touch-down.
You can definitely hear the difference between “Idle” and “full reverse thrust”, trust me :)
Using the reversers significantly decrease the landing distance, varying between aircraft, weight and environmental factors. If you look at this great video of here, showing a Boeing 747 touching down and applying full reverse thrust you can clearly see how the water on the runway gets blown forwards.
I actually experienced that myself landing on a snow covered runway, we applied full reverse thrust and you could literally see the snow blowing infront of the aircraft.
So when do you use reverse thrust?
Using “idle reverse” at touch-down is mandatory by many aircraft manufactures and airlines. First and far most to immediately decrease the aircrafts speed and to stabilize the aircrafts roll out plus to reduce brake usage.
Landing on wet or snow contaminated runways using reverse thrust is absolutely vital to decelerate the aircraft and preventing it from skidding and keeping it in a straight line.
Full reverse thrust is not permitted at some airports due to noise abendement procedures or at least restricted in between hours from here to then. Nevertheless pilots can use full reverse thrust when deemed necessary, but might have to state their decision in a report.
Airplanes with wing mounted engines may only use full reverse thrust until slowing down to a specified speed, cause using the reverser below that speed could blow up loose gravel on the runway which could get sucked into the engine and damage the turbine. For example in an Airbus A320 you would have to reduce "full reverse thrust to idle reverse" at 70 knots, and retract the reverser at speeds below 40 knots.
There are many different reverser types out there, but all work after the basic principle by forcing the air or even the exhaust into the opposite direction.
So I hope I´ve answered another aviation related question for you. If you have a question that´s been on your mind, don´t hesitate to write me, therefore subscribe my channel, check out my website and spread the word!

Captain Joe I understand how the reverse thrust works on engines that have those flaps opening when reverse thrust is deployed. It's like ground spoilers but in another way. What I don't understand is how the reverse thrust works on engines that are just separated in half when we use the reverse thrust. Can you explain if possible ?

[@bingbing-ti2rv]

I'm a future aeronautic mechanic,(student) and even if I already know everything u said, i love your vids... (PS: Brakes on a plane is not exactly like your car, but i understood what you meant 😂✈️, it's more like a motorcycle clutch, plane brakes on the landing wheels has multiple discs, some friction discs and some normal smooth discs, some of them are rolling at the wheel speed and there's a gap between the other ones who are not in movement. When the pilot push the brake pedal the moving discs "hugs" the non-moving discs to fill that gap between them, and it create a lot of friction exactly like a brake caliper will do on your brake disc in a car and that friction convert the plane speed into heat energy... So at the end the brake discs are really hot, but the plane is at 0 km/h... Have a good day 👌

On other planes such as the Boeing 777, you won’t hear the engines spooling up that much when you use idle reverse so, you will hear just a little bit of a spool but in full reverse thrust, it is quite loud.

Some military aircraft use powerback to reverse out of parking. It reduces the need for ground support equipment at an airfield. I've seen one powering back and it swallowed its own intake vortex, causing the engine to surge. It blew up right in front of my hangar. That was uhhh, IMPRESSIVE!

Yeah its called a powered pushback Some airlines did this back in the 70s. but no one does it anymore beucuase it burns extra fuel. Fuel consumption is managed heavily now by airlines.

[@MamoonGamingDK]

Yes, but only on body-mounted engines like the MD80. Plane manufacturers and regulators have banned powered pushbacks since the engines may suck up dirt from the ground and damage the fans. But yes, true: Airliners did powered pushbacks many years ago.

[@mrfrost3]

It will suck the terminal in the engines

[@ehsan83]

imho the MD-80 it's true that the pilot doesn't see his back but there is still the traffic agent guiding him so finally it might not necessary be that dangerous. Could you make a video to explain Rudder and Horizontal stabiliser please? Thanks for your great videos

[@S41t4r4]

One thing we definitely know is, that using reverse thrust ist extremely inefficient for rolling out of a parkingspot. The Stuttgarter Airport for example ban the use of reverse thrust for rolling back.

[@VaughnRhinehart]

MrMonado likely the main reason not to use reverse thrust for pushback is the danger to the structure, personnel, and unsecured equipment at the gate.

I like that reverse thrust out of the gate at the end... I don't see why that would be an issue with some rear view cameras, in-dash monitor and some reverse flashing lights. Then you can get rid of those goofy tow trucks.

[@Kalvinjj]

It would be interesting as an idea, but the risks of jet blast increase a lot (since you are applying thrust instead of idling the engines), and fuel consumption also increases, it's just cheap, safe, simple and functional to use the tow. In other hand your question/comment does bring attention to alternative methods of taxing, since it actually represents a sufficient amount of fuel waste that it's not to be overlooked (jets are very inefficient at idling, I've heard of about 60% fuel usage of max power when idling, could be wrong but still not your average car), I've once thought of a powered landing gear that can tow the plane by itself, and then I've found out it's been studied/in the works.

[@lzh4950]

I believe some smaller airports e.g. Hobart don't have such tow trucks though; instead aircraft use asymmetrical thrust to turn around and exit their gates on departure (for that to work it'll be difficult to have aerobridges though)

[@bowiefernandes92]

What will happen if u apply reverse thrust in mid air?

[@Quasihamster]

Ask Niki Lauda.

[@Rubiboy98]

Bowie Fernandes Most aircraft will only allow the reverse thrust to be activated when the landing gear touches the ground. However there have been incidents where the reverse thrust accidentally got activated during flight which resulted in two plane crashes.

[@MegaFPVFlyer]

If both reversed simultaneously the nose would drop and the aircraft would descend very rapidly. Recoverable by throttling down the engines and disabling the reversers. (As Ruben said, this is impossible in most aircraft due to touchdown sensors built into the landing gear) Now, if one were to slam open due to a mechanical failure things get deadly very fast. Say, shortly after takeoff, the right reverser opens without warning. The nose would swing to the right very violently and the rudder would probably not have enough authority to stop it. The crew would be confused and disoriented. A huge sideslip would develop and the aircraft would basically be flying sideways. The right wing would stall and drop, and at this point recovery would be impossible. But it's that pesky "mechanical failure" part that makes that scenario essentially impossible. The reversers have many sets of extremely tough locks that keep them closed. All of them would have to fail simultaneously.

Due to the intake being not far from the thrust reverser output, wouldn't there be, to some degree, a loss of the effective thrust from the thrust reversers due to a vortex ring state of sorts?

[@Streaml1neJMoose]

Along those lines if the reversers are only redirecting bypass air when you spool up to full reverse aren't you fighting yourself because the core of the turbine is making forward thrust still? Probably doesn't matter too much because most commercial engines are high bypass, but I wonder if there are mechanisms to fight that where the engine doesn't have a full clamshell to redirect all thrust (like in the MD80 video).

[@luz-5020]

Jon fritsch The point is Not just too have Reverse thrust (full reverse) but also too decrase The Outlet to The back( Idle Reverse)

[@60enterprises]

Jon fritsch At this point vortex rings are not produced due to the proximity with the ground, the distance between the wings and the ground is inferior to a wingspan

Oh, the term "ground spoilers" has so much euphemism potential as opposed to just "spoilers".

[@malamuteaerospace6333]

Clam shell or Buckets the only reverse thrust that ever worked, the rest just making lots of noise. My B1-B had no reverse or chutes and we had no problems.. Sometimes they are just more things to break, the tri-jet falcons only use 1 reverse thrust you don't need them, just help.

I just love how he says "reverze thruzt"

[@jbbrentd.calubaquib3509]

He is a German pilot so he has that awesome accent

[@gaius_enceladus]

"Reverse thrust" - when you pull *out* of the stewardess.......

[@joshuanesbit]

Hi Cpn, Joe. I have a burning question: with regards to remote stands and gates, does that mean that for people to board an aircraft on a remote stand they'd have to get onto the bus from a usual gate at the airport? If so wouldn't that mean that a plane couldn't be parked at the airbridge at that gate due to it being utilised for a flight on a remote stand?

[@Ozzie4Para]

Your videos are great. Very interesting.

[@scrippslarry]

Well done video -thanks!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Thank you :)

[@angelgarnetgloves128]

Dear Joe did u went to normal flight shcool or military?

[@freshlove7926]

Captain Joe - are you single ? How can i marry you ? 😁😍😍😍

[@lovethai8332]

Dear captain. Thanks for all video. I' like travel all the world that's why I want to be a pilot. But the question I'm 50 years old I can pilot.

[@FireboyHDGaming]

love thai Most airlines only hire 30 or younger

[@VenomKiller93]

why is there a blackbar at the bottom???

[@butterfinger4393]

Shawn Nicholas cuz hes wearing gym shorts ..

[@butterfinger4393]

Jk its for the subtitles

[@anthonydauphin1878]

I enjoy your videos Captain Joe!!!

[@vinuv16]

Hello Captain Joe. May I know if their any kind of breaking like using spoilers to slow down before the landing gear touches the ground.

[@alrikboe8165]

"wewerse frusft"

[@brennancrumb835]

Weverst frusft

[@new-knowledge8040]

So that implies that the output of the engine is far greater than the input ?? The input is sucking in air, and thus is pulling the plane forward, and the reverse output is blowing air out in the reverse direction, and thus is pushing the plane backwards. I'm so confused ??

[@AircraftGalaxy]

Idle Reverse is mostly Used Full Reverse is used Sometimes

[@libertytvdracoproductions5098]

Hello Joe, Can you explain in a video how the "Florence Kit" works (Upwards deflection of Ailerons) on the A319/320/321 Thank you

[@tomstravels520]

The ‘Florence Kit’ is a set of modifications developed first on the A319 to improve landing performance at Florence airport in Italy. This kit is now also available on the A318. It consists of: • Using the ailerons as spoilers on the ground (upward deflection) to improve braking efficiency • Defining an alternate forward centre of gravity limit that enables decrease of the approach speed, thus improving the landing performance

[@acreguy3156]

Thanks for the great video, Captain Joe! If you hold a captain's rating on a particular aircraft, why only three bars on your uniform? Just curious. Thanks :).

[@SN57ONE]

Browse on his channel I think there's a video explaining it already.

[@cyberkiller83]

I think it should be more efficiente just to turn around the entire turbine, so you can apply full trust to reverse without damaging the blades. With today servomotors i think is not impossible to design the plane so the turbines can be reversed on land.

[@ChicagoRob2]

But isn't there forward thrust from the jet, which is fighting the reverse thrust from the fan?

[@mrgameybean7476]

All of a sudden a kid says yay I could be a pilot hours later News: there is a plane that crashed into a field by pilot failure but this is great video

[@stockmatthew2010]

@captianjoe stupid question...but why does the Boeing 737 engines make a sound like a hammer drill during take off? The Airbus does not. You may know or may not know... I'm just curious... Ryanairs 737s make the noise and got me thinking when I was on plane, sat at stansted at the moment in traffic and one just took off and you can hear it.

[@iamalongusername]

I mean no disrespect, I really like this channel, i'm just wondering, does Captain Joe have a lisp, or am I just hearing things? Like frust instead of thrust?

[@nokizzy_keith]

Great video man!! Keep it up! :)

[@Xantec]

If my memory serves me right, NASA used a Gulfstream business jet with a space shuttle cockpit simulation on it and to train approaches they used to engage a small amount reverse thrust in mid flight to give the gulfstream the glide characteristics of the shuttle. I always thought that revesrse thrust on an airliner used to pull up the reverser gate lock tabs on the throttles and then you'd push forwards on the throttles rather than pull the gate lock switches and pull back beyond idle.

[@ankitverma4801]

Captain Joe what is feathering position? Please reply.

[@gooner72]

I love it when pilots do reverse thrust, the clamshell doors open and speed brakes and flaps are all up........ It's pretty cool.

[@danielmiller2977]

This is a really cool channel Thanks.

[@blancolirio]

'Captain' Joe has Three stripes!...LOL

[@blancohoussam6128]

peace Captain , why airlines companies don't want to make an in front conical-protection light grid of the reactor , I think it will help better protect the entire reactor from birds and many debris could get in and can cause lots of troubles.

[@CVD-di1xn]

While landing at night, why do I see a few sparks coming from tires of the airplane?

[@fulcrum2951]

Does turboprop aircrafts have reverse thrust and how do they work?

[@shodab1856]

Man I love ur channel
