777 reverse thrust

Is uncommanded reverse thrust in flight possible in a RR powered 772?

Anything is possible, however the cert basis was more stringent than previous models with a third layer of protection so it should be less likely.

Thanks. Strange that this question was repeatedly deleted from the 'other' thread given the calibre of some of the posts there.

Uncommanded RT lining jettisoning from the rear end is a bigger problem.

It's actually great fun if you have a type certified to do it!

Not so fun if it ain't!
