Title: Reverse Thrust?
Post by TurbofanDude on Dec 11^th, 2010 at 1:22am

Hi there,
So far, I LOVE the B-52 Driver, however, I have an issue; whenever I try to put it into reverse thrust, the engines shut down? Any idea why?

Howdy,

The BUFF does not have reverse thrust on the TF-33 (JT-3D). The throttles use an old method in which the farthest aft position is actually the shutoff position. In FSX the "Reverse Thrust" command is actually coded a rapid-retard, thus activating TR's will actually move the throttles to close.

Thanks for that. I was wondering why mine always shut down on landing. :o
