The Boeing 767 is a twin engine wide bodied commercial airplane powered by either Pratt and Whitney JT9D, or General Electric CF6 turbofan engines. This paper describes the development of the Boeing thrust reverser for the 767 airplane from configuration development to FAA certification. Unless otherwise stated the contents of this paper apply to both JT9D and CF6 installations. The requirements of the thrust reverser, together with details of each phase of development in meeting the requirements are presented. Particular attention is directed at Boeing's first use of Turbo Powered Simulator nacells for wind tunnel thrust reverser model testing and the advantage of this technique over more conventional blowing nacelle models. Finally, in-service experience and reliability together with resolutions of associated problems are discussed.
