someone might be able to answer why the aircraft did not use more than idle reverse thrust? Having spoken to a retired cathay 747 cap, he said that no mater what the Wx they would always give the reverse a good workout.

Im not sure if he is correct, but why do QANAS seem to have the procedure of not using reverse at higher settings than idle? ESP when the runwat is wet?
