| 7. |
An aircraft is negatively stable when ______ |
| A. | its tailplane produces negative lift (downwards) |
| B. | its tailplane produces positive lift (upwards) |
| C. | its tailplane does not produce lift |
| D. | it is flying inverted |
| Answer» C. its tailplane does not produce lift | |
| 8. |
Why does an FBW system use a smaller tail area? |
| A. | Bigger tails are harder to move as they produce larger wing loads |
