I admire the authors of that exchange of views regarding the tabs on the Europa stabilator. I’ve had enough training in aerodynamics (ca.1950) and forgotten most – to appreciate the mental shuttling required to design and forestall the effects of the air on the controls throughout the travel range.
Ivan and his associates certainly have my respect. It DOES seem to me that disregarding inaccurate shape, inappropriate weight balance or excess system friction, hands off trim should show the tabs aligned with the stab. At any rate if not warned otherwise, I’ll fuss if the tabs aren’t aligned if/when flies.........
A064 is now anent C-FFGG.
