And for aircraft built on the other side of the pond....

There is a 70kt call which is the cue for the PF to reduce (reverse) thrust.

Interestingly Airbus state the reason is to reduce the high EGT risk from ingesting hot air, rather than FOD risk (although that is implied with a normal ops prohibition using reverse on taxiways).

They can be used to full stop in emergency.

In normal ops, the reversers are to be stowed at taxi speed.
