Unlocked Thust Reverser

Folks,

Currently debating a question in the workplace - would a thrust reverser show up as improperly stowed or unlocked as part of your Power Checks?
Would that provide sufficient force to trigger a warning?
Any insights would be appreciate!

Thanks

Deagles,

I'm thinking of the light/business jet category, primarily.

Thanks,

The T.R. locking system should generate an unlocked/unsafe warning if it's appropriate, i.e. if the locks are not safely in when Reverse is not selected.
