Another fantastic video Christian. It didn't sound as if any reverse thrust was used, just air and foot brakes. Was this the case?

@craiglsimons Thanks Craig! Not sure to be honest (or sure how it works on the Fokkers), but it was very quiet! Lot's of runway to spare anyway..

It certainly was very quiet! I know that Schiphol has an enormously long runway. I unfortunately missed my opportunity to fly on a Fokker 100 when my flight was cancelled from Nice to Lisbon! Good to hear the sounds of the inside of a Fokker 100.

Keep up the excellent flight videos Christian and I look forward to your next upload =D

@Christian1213 Hi,

On the F70/100 they actually only use Idle reverse. Which means the buckets on the aft section of the engine deploys. It basicly doesn't help you to slow done, but they use the reverse as a back up for the liftdumpers which should be armed. If forgotten the liftdumpers will be deployed by pulling the reverse levers to idle reverse.
