(Reverse may be applied as soon as the wheels touch the ground.)
To avoid ingestion of foreign objects, come out the reverse as
speed reduces and use the brakes if necessary for further

air, and can cause control problems and decrease the comfort of
crew and passengers. If permitted by the runway length, it is better
to adopt a moderate reverse.
