Weick recognized the need for a nose wheel airplane for safety.....not only
to prevent the airplane form flopping on its nose in hard braking, but in after
landing rollout control and taxi, but also in landing without ground
looping.
See: From The Ground Up, The Autobiography of an Aeronautical
Engineer. by Fred E. Weick and James E. Hansen. 1988.
See: Pages 148 ------ and further, where you will see Fred Weick
received patents on the co-ordinated 2 control system and the tri-cycle landing
gear.
