Jacques, you are correct, although it's more like they are toed in or out; although you are technically right, "canted" is more often used to mean not straight, or off center. This is important to note because older free-castering nose gear might be turned sideways which could present problems when starting to taxi; steerable nose gear are less likely to have this issue.

I hope this helps.

Old farm tractors often had the same setup. I can hardly believe they were worried about tire wear. There must be another reason than that, no?

The calm before the storm. So hard not to come back everyday and check for anything new. :lol: I can go months without visiting here and happily flying the Mustang and all the other planes, but as soon as I know something new is afoot it is like a never ending pull to come and see. Doesn't help either being stuck in the house all weekend due to the hurricane. Hopefully everyone else affected by it is safe.

It sure is, I prefer the usual way A2A does it. Announce with a video just a week or two before release. I actually wish I hadn't known about the Connie so early on because I now find myself constantly checking the forums every day like some desperate madman, lol!

Btw, this is the only FS add-on developer that makes me this obsessive because I always know their next release will be amazing.

I flew a Connie in FS9 years ago and it was a blast. This A2A model should be awesome.
