The minimum turning radius of the airplane, using differential
braking and nose wheel steering during taxi, is approximately 27feet. To
obtain a minimum radius turn during ground handling, the airplane may
be rotated around either main landing gear by pressing down on a tail cone
bulkhead just forward of the horizontal stabilizer to raise the nose wheel
