Narrative:
During my short 250 hours on this aircraft I have experienced 5 abnormal landing events. During [the most recent] event; after normal touchdown spoiler deployment occurs. Shortly after spoiler deployment occurs; the spoilers retract; the autobrakes disengage and the throttles advance. If the throttles are above idle; the thrust reversers lock. This event has occured at both flaps 30 and 40; with and without crosswind and with sink rate between 150FPM and 400FPM (estimated). The event has been countered with manual spoiler extension; manual braking and physically holding the throttles at idle with the forarm while deploying thrust reversers. The event causes increased landing rollout and stopping distance.recommend searching foqa data for similar incidents to determine cause of above event and take action necessary to prevent future occurrence.
