where the wheel castings attach to the landing bar I can be Toe-in,
Neutral, or Toe-out. I've read some articles that promote Toe-out, but they
don't say how many degrees.
Any suggestions, experience, or thoughts would be much appreciated.

I used to be an auto mechanic. I did a lot of front end work, and I know
that the proper toe on the tires depends on the camber angle. A tire tends
to roll in the direction it is leaning, if it is tilted out at the top
(positive camber), it will require enough toe-in to counteract this
tendency. Th

I have heard that you should absolutely not have toe out and that the toe in
should be from zero to 3 degrees. Of course the more toe in, the more wear
on your tires. My understanding is that the toe-in helps you maintain a
straight run as when one wheel starts to turn from toe in, to straight, t

Dear list,
A friend of mine bought a smaller version of a piper cub in S.Africa. I
have noticed that his toe-in both point to the right (if u sit in the
plane), and the camber is also not looking great. How will this affect
landing at,say, 70 to 80 mph? I thought that the overcompensation for

If both main wheels toe in (actually the right wheel is toed out) are set to
point to the right, your friends airplane will pull to the right whenever it
is motion. The faster your friend goes(on the ground) the more pronounced
the pull to the right will be. When both wheel are set to toe
