they use both. the aircraft uses ceramic brakes to slow the aircraft (ceramic because of the extreame heat produced up to 300 deg C). The rev thrust is mainly used to slow the aircraft at high speeds. rev thrust is disengaged when the aircraft hits about 80 knts and from then on the brakes are used only. If you get a good enough photo of the landing gear during braking they should glow red/yellow
What else can I help you with?
When while touching down do we execute reverse thrust deploy spoiler and apply brakes?
Only big airplanes like Boeing need to do this. They come at a great landing speed. So, to slow them down reverse thrust is deployed and brakes are applies. Small aircraft dont need this.
How do commercial planes slow down on landing?
Commercial planes slow down on landing primarily through the use of brakes and reverse thrust. After touchdown, pilots deploy the aircraft's wheel brakes to reduce speed, while many planes also engage thrust reversers, which redirect engine thrust forward to help decelerate. Additionally, some aircraft use speed brakes, which are panels that extend from the wings to increase drag. These combined methods allow for a safe and controlled landing process.
What forces help stop airplanes?
The natural force of drag assists in slowing down the plane. However, once a plane lands, it uses spoilers, brakes, and reverse thrust to stop.
What is reverse thrust in a 777 landing?
When airplanes fly, the exhaust gasses from jet engines go behind the engine and push the airplane forward. When the airplanes land on the runway, the directions of the exhaust gas from the engine is changed so it pushes forward. Instead of making the plane go forward, it starts trying to make the plane go into reverse. As a result, it slows down the airplane. That slows down the airplane much faster than just using the brakes would.
How do you stop the 747 aircraft after landing?
All aircraft are fitted with brakes (much like a car) -however - with large aircraft, the pilot can set the engines to 'reverse thrust' which brings the plane to a stop quickly.
When do you engage thrust reversers?
You should engage reverse thrust just after the nose landing gear touches the ground. You should disengage it when the co-pilot tells you to.
Can a plane reverse?
Certain airplanes such as the Harrier, can float still, spin and reverse in mid air. This is due to vector thrust engines that have rotating exhausts and louvers that can be pointed downward
Can the Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas support reverse thrust on FSX?
I own the T-Flight Hotas, and it does not support reverse thrust. However, it is a simple matter to just press f2 on the keyboard upon landing and I have had no problems doing just that.

Do ships have brakes?
They are not brakes like what are in a car, but they do have ways to slow down or stop. In larger ships, reverse thrust is a more common way to decrease speed when underway.
Does a c-130 have speedbrakes?
The C-130 does not have a speed brake. They use a combination of brakes, flaps, and reverse thrust to slow down.
Does thrust effect a paper airplanes?
An arm throwing it is causing the thrust.
