December 4, 200421 yr Friends :)The freeware Dash 7 continues to delight, and I fly it everyday. However, I did notice something when I began a descent & wanted to put this past all of you. I had forgotten I had already selected idle-power by pressing F1 and was absent-mindedly jabbing the F2 key to reduce power and then suddenly all four turboprops went into full reverse.You can use reverse-pitch in flight in the real Dash 7?I do seem to recall there was/is a 4-engine plane that can select reverse thrust in flight on the inboard engines, not sure about the Dash 7 though.Any thoughts? - I gotta say though: makes for great aerobraking when youre approaching those mountain airfields! http://smilies.jeeptalk.org/contrib/corky/corkysm21.gif
