CS 25.1155 Reverse thrust and propeller pitch settings below the flight regime ED Decision 2016/010/R (See [AMC 25.1155](#_DxCrossRefBm1709821530)) Each control for selecting propeller pitch settings below the flight regime (reverse thrust for turbo-jet powered aeroplanes) must have the following: (a) A positive lock or stop which requires a separate and distinct operation by the flight crew to displace the control from the flight regime (forward thrust regime for turbo-jet powered aeroplanes), and it must only be possible to make this separate and distinct operation once the control has reached the flight idle position. (b) A means to prevent both inadvertent and intentional selection or activation of propeller pitch settings below the flight regime (reverse thrust for turbo-jet powered aeroplanes) when out of the approved in-flight operating envelope for that function, and override of that means is prohibited. (c) A reliability, such that the loss of the means required by sub-paragraph (b) above is remote. (d) A caution provided to the flight crew when the means required by sub-paragraph (b) above is lost. (e) A caution provided to the flight crew when a cockpit control is displaced from the flight regime (forward thrust regime for turbo-jet powered aeroplanes) into a position to select propeller pitch settings below the flight regime (reverse thrust for turbo-jet powered aeroplanes) outside the approved in-flight operating envelope. This caution need not be provided if the means required by sub-paragraph (b) is a mechanical baulk that prevents movement of the control. [Amdt 25/18]
