Answer 4

0.82 M

Question 5

Nose landing gear

Maximum steering angle ?

AOM Volume 2 - 14-13-25 “HANDWHEEL STEERING MODE”

Answer 5

Steering angle varies from ±76° up to 40 kt decreasing linearly to ±7° at 100 kt.

Question 6

Landing gear

Maximum turning widt with full deflection on the nosewheel?

AOM Volume 2 - 14-13-25

Answer 6

With a full deflection of the Nose Wheel, the Aircraft can theoretically turn on taxiways as narrow as 22.68 m.

Note that the largest clearance is required by the Tail, which is not visible. In a maximum turn, either the left or the right MLG remains stationary, marking the center of the turn.
