This Is How A Boeing 737 Actually Slams On The Brakes! The classic Boeing 737-200 uses distinctive target-style thrust reversers on its Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines. After touchdown, the large doors deploy behind the engines and redirect exhaust forward, creating reverse thrust that helps slow the aircraft alongside its wheel brakes and spoilers. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: The original creator and copyright ownership of this specific footage could not be independently verified.
