During the investigation of this accident much has been made of the design, material, and construction of the vertical stab on the A-300. We now all are aware that Part 25 certification does not cover the loads associated with a rudder reversal…….but…….I, and many other folks have wondered………would the fin have separated on the Boeing equivalent?

For you engineering types, inquiring minds would like to know.
