    I could be wrong, but is the amphib not supposed to have free-castoring nose wheels? If so, I recall there is a way to enable this in the aircraft config. Perhaps a tablet option could be added.

      The normal version should also have a free castoring wheel beyond 15 degrees as far as I understand. The rudder pedal steering only turns the nose wheel 15 degrees, and by using the brakes you can increase the nose wheel angle to 56 degrees. Would be nice to see this simulated in both the amphib and the normal version as it adds to the realism of operating the airplane. For some reason it's something almost no developer does and I can't understand why. It isn't any harder than having nose wheel steering once you get used to it

        @09tir98 I believe it's because there isn't a native way to implement that, but it definitely would be nice

          I agree some more steering realism would be great. Also a realistic parking brake.
          As far as I remember those aren’t part of any Black Square aircraft for convenience of less-skilled users.
