REVERSE THRUST PROBLEM

[SWAFO]

That's odd, what aircraft model are you using? I've always had to press and hold it, and then it only minorly slows me down. I do find that
reverse thrust in the PMDG 737 is under-modeled. Keep in mind that we can go just as high in positive N1's (forward thrust) as we can
in negative N1's (reverse thrust). I find that in FS9, the N1 usually won't go above 50-70% when using MAX reverse thrust. In reality, I'll put
money on the fact that I can exceed 100% N1 (in the older 737's with no thrust limiting device... AKA, our -3/500's) in reverse. Anyone
wanna bet? I'm sure my PAX would just love that! The force of deceleration would be incredibly immense!

The highest I've realistically taken the N1 on reverse would be about the 80% range... that's stopping at BUR, or SNA... some place with a
short runway and tight noise abatements. I always love to come in loud and in charge at those places!
