Thank you for your input. Perhaps that’s a deal killer.

I’m not convinced the curvature will require you to engage the nose-wheel immediately, but perhaps I’m not understanding your point clearly.

You bet. It looks like a circle to me, not an oval, so it is a continuous turn. Which means to maintain position on centerline you’d have to be turning as soon as you hit the runway, really as soon as your started your flare. The more I think about this, the more dangerous it is.

Ignore his post. Nosewheel deviation is restricted to small angles and at high speeds the deviation is zero even at full pedal input.
