An interesting discussion is developing.
For those who might think that tailplanes are not associated with downforce, a simple Google search for "friendly fire Caribou accident" will lead to a very well-known photo of a Caribou's last seconds after having the empennage shot off by friendly fire on short final into a forward strip in Vietnam during the mid-60s.
Once you have figured out the perspective, you will see that the aircraft has pitched nose down and through the vertical .. in the space of a second or two.
