braking by reverse thrust
1Thrust reversal — Thrust reversal, also called reverse thrust, is the temporary diversion of an aircraft engine s exhaust or changing of propeller pitch so that the thrust produced is directed forward, rather than aft. This acts against the forward travel of the… …
2Thrust — is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton s Second and Third Laws. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction the accelerated mass will cause a proportional but opposite force on that system.ExamplesA fixed wing… …
3thrust reversal — The method and means of reducing the landing run of an aircraft without excessive use of wheel brakes or any use of braking or tail parachutes. On piston and turboprop engines, it can be done by reversing the propeller pitch. In turbojet engines …
4aerodynamic braking — Decelerating an aircraft by using means other than wheel brakes. The aerodynamic braking can be done by one or more of the following methods: i. Keeping the nose of the aircraft high with the nosewheel off the ground. This technique is normally… …

6Air brake (aircraft) — In aeronautics, air brakes are a type of flight control used on aircraft to reduce speed during landing.Air brakes differ from spoilers in that air brakes are designed to increase drag while making little change to lift, whereas spoilers greatly… …
