I was trying to work out the reverser stow time and acceleration of a wide cord high by-pass engine to TOGA ( I know a pure jet from just above idle to nearly T/O power is 4.5 seconds) and I come to a figure which would be about 0.35 miles of distance covered by an aircraft at 120knts.
That is a preponderance of a decision for a PIC in such circumstances; perhaps some knowledgeable comments/ corrections?
Out of interest, even the very classic B747 with JT9's had an interlock, by way of an electrical actuator in the pylon area, which prevented forward throttle movement whilst the reversers were not stowed.
