Doesn't anyone have an answer to this question?


If anyone gives you an answer you will just proceed to tell him that he
must be wrong. In interest of saving time you should probably just skip
the initial question, tell us that all the answers you would have
received are wrong, and we'll all be happier that way.

Of course not. At least not one that would be acceptable to your
standards.


My standards require that the FARs be observed, so you may be right, at least
in the case of some respondents.

I don't think anyone here has the answer, so that's a moot assumption.

I would bet 95% of us know, and the other 5% will recall the minute they
hear the answer.

Nope. There aren't too many 747 pilots on this newsgroup.

I prefer the 747, 737, and Baron.

I'll bite.

My experience with 747s and taxiing is that, when approaching a 90
degree LH turn, for instance, the plane will be steered passed the (LH
turn) centerline and continue straight until that LH centerline is
about even with my shoulder. (That is to say that if you put a yard
stick across my chest, it will be pointing straight down the taxi-way
that I want to go to) At that point a LH turn is then started. The
nose wheel is turned slightly sharp and to a point midway between taxi
way edge and centerline for a second or two (assuming 8 knot GS ) and
then it is brought right to the centerline for a decent turn. While in
the turn your vision in front of the plane is nothing but weeds and
dirt. The reasons for this method have been hit upon befo You must
keep the main gear on the center portion of the taxi way or otherwise
risk stuck and/or damaged plane. With that gear so far behind you -
100ft? - you must overshoot your turn, or run off the taxi way.

777s are pretty much the same.


Give th eman a cigar.
