Hi all,
I've had my RV-6A for about 3 weeks now and absolutely LOVE flying this plane. Of everything I've owned, gliders, Cherokee, 2 Mooneys and an AeroTrek A220, This RV is the most fun and exhilarating plane to fly!
I was told that towing an RV-A by the nose wheel is not good for the nose gear. This person said only pull or push by the prop and steer with a towbar (which is what I have done since purchase). I instructed FBO personnel to not use a power tow on the nose gear and move the airplane as described above. They looked at me like I had 6 heads.
What's your thoughts?
Dave
