A question about activating reverse thrust in large aircraft ...
It appears one would go to idle thrust at touchdown (mains), and following nose-wheel touchdown (I'm assuming a squat switch) the levers are pulled up and back to activate thrust reversers with the engines at idle.
Is this the correct GENERAL sequence?
Is it common to spool the engines back up while in reverse thrust (other than using RT for pushback) for short runway, for contaminated runway, or other possible over-run situations?
Just curious ...
