A couple more knots, and they would have had a rinse.

One would assume the right. Why someone would not MEL both on a 737 if one was inop is beyond me. Reverse thrust is not a consideration when the landing distances in the AFM are certified. Wing mounted engines are obviously going to cause a huge amount of asymmetric drag with one T/R deployed. I won't speculate any further.

I've never found this to be the case.

Without a lever lockout that seems like very bad design.

How would you suggest MX have a method to adjust your max reverse? Should we try to accomplish this feat standing on a ladder with the buckets deployed and the cowls open? If the CB has opened you won't have an armed indication for that T/R, checklists are important.

Edit: None of the above applies to FADEC engines.

If the reverser isn’t armed the lever shouldn’t be able to be moved into position. This can be accomplished easily with a lockout solenoid built into the thrust lever assembly (by the MFR, not a MX procedure).

Yes. They'd have been better off overrunning the runway because there's still flat, solid land that way.

Yepp, but that strip isn't that long. Pegasus is one of the P2F outfits, CVR data might be interesting. They have a lot of "Top Gun wannabees"

You had me at "standing on a ladder". Bonus points if it involves balancing on one foot and/or holding anything hot/electrical.

I heard it was actually a low speed aborted takeoff on runway 29.

Narrative:
Pegasus flight 8622 suffered a runway excursion after landing on runway 11 at Trabzon Airport, Turkey. The aircraft went off the left side of the runway and stopped on a steep downslope.
The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, departed Ankara-Esenboga Airport at 22:33 hours local time (19:33 UTC) on a domestic flight to Trabzon Airport in Turkey. The flight made a straight in approach to runway 11 and touched down at 23:25 hours.

The worst A320 accident in the world was on a single TR inop MEL, landed on a short runway and the CA only brought back the operative thrust reverser engine lever back to idle and into max reverse. The other engine thrust lever was left where it was: the default in the CL (climb) detent on the A320. You can guess the rest - one engine goes to max reverse, the other to climb power. Everyone on the plane died plus some others on the ground near the airport.

This cannot be emphasized enough, and about Turkish aviation in general.

Has the flightcrew ever been in a Turkish prison?

I don't know why everyone is so surprised by all this. It is the normal mating cycle of a 737.

(Aussie) “The elusive Teal-backed Boeing is rarely seen in the wild. When it moves upriver from the seas for its annual mating season, its large size can provide a danger for rafters and kayakers.
The Boeings are remnants of a prehistoric breed and demand respect from those around them. Compared to their modern distant European cousins, Pelecanus Airbusus, the Boeing lacks grace and civility, but shows a great desire for returning to its wet homeland.” (/Aussie)

I suppose as a mechanic you haven't really cut your teeth until you're on a ladder making adjustments on an engine that's at high power with the only indication of any redline is the guy in the cockpit using the aileron to let you know what's up.
At moments such as those I wonder why I ever got into it at all, especially if it's dark and raining, it seems like it's always dark and raining.

Sorry, it was just a bad joke.

Hmm.
Turkish government news sites are reporting runway contamination... Some Kurds got in the way.
