Semi-time lapse of AF1 arrive, unload, reload then depart at CLE
Is that a short runway? I noticed the engines were in reverse right at touch down?
It’s plenty long…9000 feet.
Oh okay. From what I have seen jets don’t reverse that quick…
You can use reverse as soon as the mains are on the ground and have spun up to speed.
Here’s a cool vid,
I know they can reverse the second they hit the ground, but most videos and in-person landings I’ve seen they wait a little while before they reverse thrust.
Thanks 71Zulu.
