Narrative:The aircraft was operating a scheduled service between New York Kennedy Airport and Manchester International Airport. An uneventful approach and touchdown were carried out on Runway 24R following which reverse thrust was selected on all engines to approximately three-quarters power. At around 80 kt reverse thrust was cancelled, engine Nos 1, 2 and 4 reversers stowed normally but flight deck indications showed No 3 reverser remained unlocked and in transit.
After the landing of the B747, a Boeing 757 aircraft was cleared to cross Runway 24R, from the F2 holding point on the north side to the south side. While crossing behind the B747 the first officer on the B757 noticed a large piece of engine cowling falling from the aircraft during its landing roll.
He notified Air Traffic Control (ATC) who took action to prevent other aircraft landing on the runway. ATC also offered the support of the emergency services to the commander of the B747 which was declined. The B747 continued taxiing to its allocated parking stand where, following engine shutdown, the passengers were disembarked.
