Here's another video of PW reversers...

Landing in Guatemala. An amazingly small turning circle at the end of the runway.

Hardy,

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread but it confirms your update in PSX 10.151 - the THR Cursors do disappear in REV operation on all three ENG Types.

Finally some really decent quality footage.

From what I see the THR Cursor vanishes once REV changes from yellow to green as the REV are fully opened & Partial/Full REV is selected. Obviously this is triggered by the logic built into the air/ground sensor/reverser systems sensor logic.

Thanks, Steve.

In the PW video I see the cursors at idle in "green-REV". Maybe the cursors should only be invisible when they are out of idle.

Theory: Idle is a clearly defined position and thus can be shown to the pilot. Non-idle command is vague on EICAS and thus must be hidden.

I'm tending to agree with you here Hardy...from what I can see the Cursor Symbol seems to be removed as you say when the REV move out IDLE into Partial REV THR or an increasing amount of REV THR.

EICAS thrust cursor display logic is now remodified in PSX update 10.158:
