  proper operation. 6. Investigate any unusual sounds, such as those caused by rubbing, binding, chafing, or vibration. Nose Wheel Steering Systems The nose wheel on most aircraft is steerable from the flight deck via a nose wheel steering system. This ... Such aircraft are steered during taxi by differential braking. Small Aircraft Most small aircraft have steering capabilities through the use of a simple system of mechanical linkages connected to the rudder pedals. Push-pull tubes are connected to pedal horns…
