Evening all. I have just installed flight sim X. I seem to remember from the old flight sim that I could engage reverse thrust on all jet and turboprop aircraft. I cannot find this facility in the controls settings or any way to allocate a key. Any ideas?

Try the 'reduce throttle' or 'reduce power' functions. I have mind on FS9 set to the numpad '-' for quick thrust reversing on landing  Wink

In FSX the default reverser is F2, just hold that key down and it will go into reverse  Smiley
