A320 family nosegear canted forward
I operate A320 aircraft and have wondered why the nosegear leg is canted forward.
From ramp observation, the design isn't copied on any other Airbus, or Boeing.
It appears to transfer all the load onto the inner tyre during turns, and seems to work against the trailing-arm effect for a loss-of-hydraulics landing.
Anyone know the technical reason for the unique layout?
