Although the tail experiences an increasing negative incidence due to downwash with i
but this quote implies pre-stall doesn't it ? At stall I guess the air is disorganised and there is no steady flow so aerodynamically the effect of the tail goes to zero. It was the quote I was interested in which implies that at any (pre-stall) aoa the flow over the high tail is canted downwards relative to freestream on account of the wing. Was just checking that was what was meant as it surprised me (perhaps through nothing more than ignorance).
Con-pilot ? Missed that.
