Nose landing gear:
Centring cam -Locks inner and outer cylinder
No metering pin
Shimmy Damper - Prevents Oscillation. One to structure one to inner cylinder. Spring keeps the 2 Friction plates
Steering - Inner cylinder rotates via torque links
Landing energy gets transferred
Landing energy gets transferred to heat energy
