The horizontal part of the tail. The horizontal stabilizer helps to increase the stability of the aircraft. It is also known as a tailplane.
Located at the rear of an airplane or helicopter fuselage, this planar surface serves to keep the airplane stable on its pitch axis. Report this Word See also: Pitch Axis Added by: mkranitz
loosely called the "wing," the airfoil-shaped surface mounted horizontally above the transom and usually adjustable for trimming.
The horizontal part of the tail to which the elevator is attached
also called the tailplane. The horizontal surface at the back of the fuselage, to which the elevators are attached.
The plane that lies across the top of the tail which resembles the wing of an airplane.
The small wings at the rear of an aircraft's fuselage that balance the lift forces generated by the main wings farther forward on the fuselage. The stabilizer also usually contains the elevator.
the horizontal airfoil of an aircraft's tail assembly that is fixed and to which the elevator is hinged
Usually called the Tail plane, it's the horizontal surface at the rear of the fuselage to which the elevators are attached. It helps to stabilize the model in pitch.
The horizontal surface of the tail gives the airplane stability while in flight.
The horizontal tail surface at the back of the fuselage which provides aerodynamic pitch stability to the airplane.
The fixed horizontal surface at the rear of the aircraft, equipped with controllable elevators. See also Elevators.
the flight surface that supports the elevator and also helps to stabilize the model in pitch.
The portion of the tail that includes the elevators, which control the plane’s up and down movement.
An airfoil-shaped surface that's mounted above the rear of the hull.
