Avro Taxiing without Differential Brakes
Avro Taxiing without Differential Brakes
As there are no differential brakes in the cockpit's rudder, and only one parking brake Lever that can't be used as differential surrogate, my question is how Taxiing is supposed to be effectively steerable in the real plane when making sharp turns, as rudder steering sometimes does not seem to have the expected effect... As there is also no Tailwheel Lock, I wondered if a Tailwheel locking is taking place like in the P-51 by pushing/pulling the yoke, but I think that's not the case. The Tailwheel is not synchronically turning (visually) with Foot-Rudder application.

Re: Avro Taxiing without Differential Brakes
Another technique could be by using the engines separately to steer. For example increasing power on your left engine to turn right.
