T-Tail
Example
T-Tail
A T-tail is an empennage configuration in which
the horizontal surfaces (tailplane and elevators)
are mounted to the top of the vertical stabilizer.
looks like the capital letter T when viewed from
the front or back, hence the name.
horizontal control surfaces are mounted to the
fuselage at the base of the vertical stabilizer.
T-tail is especially popular
on gliders.
Advantage
The tailplane surfaces are kept well out of the
airflow behind the wing, giving smoother
flow, more predictable design
characteristics, and better pitch control.
It can operating at low speed, where clean
airflow is required for control.
T-tail configuration also allows high
performance aerodynamics and excellent
glide ratio as the empennage is not affected
by wing slipstream.
The T-tail arrangement is also commonly
found on airliners with rear-mounted engines,
including trijets. The Douglas DC-9,

Disadvantage
• The T-tail aircraft may be
Susceptible to a deep stall.
• In a deep stall, the airflow
over the horizontal tail is blanketed by the disturbed
airflow from the wings and fuselage.
• In these circumstances, elevator or stabilator
control could be diminished, making it difficult to
recover from the stall.
Due to a lack of airflow over the elevator from
a forward mounted engine (piston or
turboprop), low speed control is reduced and
low speed operation is more difficult for
aircraft not designed for low speed operation.
