Full flight with thrust reversers

#1

I flew today from KEDW RWY35 to KEDW RWY30 with only thrust reversers activated. Used the airborne thrust reversers bug. And 300+KTS of rotation speed. Hard to do actually. You can only speed down in the air and your speed drops fast. Flaps are not so much help either, but an empty plane can help you. Also, this can be done on Live.

How to create this:

Solo:
Accelerate your plane to maximum speed on KEDW RWY 35 (39K FT long runway)
Activate reversers before you take off
Replay to were the reversers were on
Done

Live:
Accelerate your plane to maximum speed on KEDW RWY 35 (39K FT long runway)
Activate reversers before you take off
Go to ATC screen and close it before rotation.
Done
