Ercoupes... ?

B52 gear is set for the crab angle for take-off and landing, the gear is locked in position and doesn't free caster. It is also used for steering. The Ercoupe gear doesn't really caster either. It is a trailing link gear. While it will swing some, it wants to return to the center afterwards.
