Here are some real quick question that I have always wanted to know the answers to.
1.) What is the procedure for "reverse thrust" on an airliner?
a.) Where are the switches located in the cockpit for "reverse thrust".
b.) Is true that when an airline pilot is landing and over the "numbers". That he or she will bring the thrust levels back to idle. Then on roll out push the thrust levers forward while pushing the reverse thrust button?
2.) Lastly I have seen tons of cockpit pictures and diagrams. I know where most everything is in the cockpit. But where is the lever to lower the "slats"? The lever to lower the "flaps" is located on the right hand side of the cockpit near the co-pilots station. It's marked 0,1,5,15,25,35,40 but what bout the slats where is it's lever?
3.) Okay one last question. Does the 757/767 have a "stabalizer" i.e. not moveable or do they have "stabalators", i.e. moveable. Cause everytime I see a pic of a 757/767 taking off I only see the elevator deflected upwards but the horizontal stabilzer really looks like it could move also and be deflected upwards as well as downwards (if thats a word).
