Thrust reversal: Applications & Measurement

Thrust reversal, also called reverse thrust, is an operating mode for jet engines equipped with a thrust reverser when thrust is directed forwards for slowing an aircraft after landing. It assists wheel braking and reduces brake wear. Fatal accidents have been caused by inadvertent use of thrust reversal in flight.
