GROUND MANEUVERS
Nose gear steering control
(Figures 7.5.3 and 7.5.4)
Nose gear steering control is combined with rudder pedals and is fitted with a
shimmy damper. When one of rudder pedals is fully pushed, nose wheel
swivels about 20
°
. Steering may be increased up to 28
°
by applying
differential braking to each side.
Airplane may be towed by attaching a steering or towing bar on nose gear
(Refer to Chapter 8.6 for operation). In that case nose wheel steering angle is
limited to
±
28
°
.
Minimum turn diameter
Minimum turn diameter, Figure 7.5.4, is obtained by using nose gear steering
and differential braking. Since tight turns lead to untimely tire wear, turns
should be made using the largest possible turning radius.
