A system and method for display of judgmental oversteering taxi data receives a plurality of parameters from aircraft, environmental, position and path sources and determines and displays accurate oversteering data to a pilot. The system enables the pilot to make a variety of taxi turns confident that all aircraft wheels remain on a prepared surface. Aircraft sources include data associated with the aircraft including whether the aircraft has steerable body gear. The environmental parameters include weather, surface friction, and additional data applicable to a turning radius of an aircraft. Position data includes GNSS data to accurately position the aircraft aligned with the taxiways. Path data includes an assigned ATC clearance as well as taxiway data associated with the assigned taxi route. The method compares each of these received variables with stored database information to ensure the aircraft maintains a safe position on the prepared surface during a turn.
