747-8F thrust reverser cycle after maintenance. GEnx cascade system... sleeve slides back, cascades open, blocker doors close the fan duct and the air gets redirected forward. Clean deploy.

GE90 thrust reverser ops test from the side and rear. You can see the blocker doors swinging into place. That big fan sleeve slides aft, cascades open up, and those blocker doors fold in to shut off the normal bypass path. Fan air gets forced forward through the cascades instead of going straight out the back. Core still pushes aft like normal.

Let me show you the thrust reverse ops check after performing maintenance on a GE90. The outer sleeve translates rearward, exposing the cascade vanes. At the same time the blocker doors inside the bypass duct deploy to block the normal rearward airflow. All that fan air gets redirected forward through the cascades... that’s reverse thrust helping the aircraft stop. If you’ve only seen it from the cabin or side, take a look at the back view in the video to get the full picture.

Specialists at the (UAC) continue working on the new import substituting SJ-100 aircraft. During the latest tests, They tested the PD-8 engine’s thrust reverser system. PD-8 engine is equipped with an electric sliding thrust reverser, which replaces traditional hydraulic systems.

A China Eastern pilot used the A350's thrust reverser to reverse the aircraft on the bay as it hit the jet bridge. Using the thrust reverser of an A350 to reverse the aircraft would be the first time I have seen this. 2 May 2026, Shanghai Airport. Why did he use the thrust reverser twice? Why not just set the brake after the first time?

Early morning on the ramp with this Boeing 747-8 with GEnx engines.. Listen to that beautiful spool-up. Fun fact: the GEnx on the 747-8 uses pneumatic start (bleed air), while the same engine family on the 787 uses electric start. Different aircraft, different systems. Nothing beats watching a quad get ready for departure.

Not just once, but TWICE! 😳✈️ This Korean Air Cargo Boeing 747-8F had to go around TWO times while trying to land at LAX! Both go-arounds happened because cargo aircraft landed ahead of the 747 and failed to clear the runway in time, forcing the 747-8F to abort its approach and try again. Talk about a busy runway! All the action was caught LIVE on the 24/7 Airline Videos Live broadcast on July 20th, 2026!

One of aviation’s coolest features! After touchdown, the CFM LEAP-1A (or Pratt & Whitney PW1100G, depending on the aircraft) deploys its thrust reversers. Instead of producing thrust only forward, the engine opens translating sleeves that redirect part of the fan airflow forward, creating reverse thrust to help slow the aircraft after landing. 📹: chorche_jr
