Has anyone else had problems activating reverse thrust in FS2002? I have had two landings today where both times the thrust reversers never deployed. I had installed the Active Camera thing the other day, and I never had problems before that - is that a likely cause?

mmm it shouldnt case problems like that.

Do you use any hardware throttles or throttle on a joystick?
How do you usually use reverse thrust?
Does it apply to ALL aircraft?
Have you tired holding down the F2 key?

Andrewm - I use a joystick which does have a throttle button, and I was holding down F2 when the reversers failed to deploy. It happened on the default 737-400, on a newly-installed 757 and also on an ARJ. And I use reverse thrust normally for slowing down on the runway after landing.

Did the new aircraft have self installers or did you do it manually? If manual did they tell you to put any files into the "Modules" folder.

On your keyboard if you have "F Lock" was it turned on? Usually default is Turned off.
