Just took off with the Convair 580 and the nose gear would not retract. Even on the ground any rough taxiway or runway causes it to dive into the ground.Frank B^)

You broke the nose wheel. When it falls thru the ground or a tailwheel falls thru, it has been damaged. I taxi the 580 on grass and gravel and haven't had it do that. You will have to use FSEDIT to beef up the compression rate of that strut.Don

thanks Don. I will mess with that. Should have been there when I horsed that thing intop the air! LOLFrank.
