Flying tail

My understanding is a stabilator is not a flying tail. The all flying tail still has an elevator connected to the stab via linkages, where as the Cherokee's have a trim tab. I remember the distinction being made between a stabilator and an all flying tail. If I am wrong, I'm sure someone will clarify it.

As Clinty said, it is a tough exam, the 6 P rule is very important!

Comparing with other guys, it can really be a mixed bag, so know it all well.

All the best with the exam.
