TP,
please educate me on this. I imagine that all this GS logic is to avoid a situation where the pilot wants to go around after touchdown, and he has ground spoilers up. But I learned from this thread that less than a second after touchdown, pilots are engaging T/R (it's OK to do it even if you don't have nose WoW). When he decides to go around after touchdown with T/R (not recommended?), the time it takes to go from reverse to forward thrust wouldn't be enough to also "close" GS (also automatically)?

What I am trying to say is: Why not make GS available if EITHER TL is at reverse?

thanks

Rob
