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?
