MD elevators

must be that when on runway to T/O you line up into wind, and the surfaces align to airflow.
ON the B707 in a tail wind one elevator would go up and the other down onto the limit stops and would lock the control column in a mid postion, to cure go down the back and pull/push one elevator to the same positions as the other .
