A 'common' SOP is to use reverse idle until the a/c is at 'normal taxy speed', therefore by def. on an RET it would be ok., and a sensible way to continue to slow down.

You are right about RET speeds, BB. Exit 'FR' at LGW R26 is at a fine angle and quite long, so higher speeds there are ok whereas elsewhere not.
