High Wing Drifter

From what I read, your explanation means that the initial cause of the pitch up is due to the forward movement of the C of P found in a swept wing. Only after that does the T tail have an effect. I therefore stand by my original statement, the T tail does not necessarily cause the pitch up but may either aggravate it or prevent recovery.
