hi justanotherwindscreen:

I flew the nine but never the -80. in the 9 we could deploy thrust reversers inflight ( not legally of course!!!!) is there any logic or interlocks to prevent that in the super 80? also, I read somewhere that some planes had a ground sensing mechanism on the nose strut to make sure the nose wheel was on the ground prior to thrust reverser deployment? do you know if AA had it that way?
