Abstract:
A pedal operated apparatus controls an aircraft rudder during flight using a mechanical linkage and controls a nose wheel power steering system while the aircraft is on the ground. The apparatus includes a pair of foot pedals operatively connected to the rudder and also connected to the power steering system. Springs are operatively connected to the pedals only when the aircraft is on the ground to center the nose wheel after a turn. The springs are operatively disconnected when the aircraft is in flight.
