Obtaining, by the processing means, a route line based on the route 320. Determining, by the processing means, at least one route feature along the route line 330. Determining, by the processing means, a deviation of a nosewheel of the aircraft from the route line based on a current position of the aircraft provided by the aircraft global navigation satellite system (GNSS) 340. Outputting, by the processing means, an adjustment of an angle of the nosewheel to correct the deviation from the route based on the deviation of the nosewheel 350.
