This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) considers the origin of cornering forces generated by tilted, free-swiveling nose gears; the effect of various landing gear parameters on the measured cornering forces; and a method of towing aircraft to measure the resulting steering forces. This document represents a piece of work which is stable and not evolving; as a result, the document will be moved to stabilized status—relevant information for the industry which is not evolving.
