Abstract

A method for controlling a turbojet engine thrust reverser during an aborted aircraft takeoff, the thrust reverser including doors movable between a stowed position, an overstowed position and a deployed position; door actuators to move the doors between the stowed, overstowed and deployed positions; a device for locking the doors in the stowed position, moveable between a locking position and an unlocking position; and a lock actuator to move the locking device between the locking and unlocking positions. The method includes decreasing the engine speed of the turbojet engine by following a setpoint value below a first engine speed threshold value at which the aerodynamic forces being exerted on the doors are equal to the forces developed by the door actuators; controlling the door actuators to bring the doors into the overstowed position; controlling the lock actuator to bring the locking device into the unlocking position.
