"wing passing under the horizontal tailplane". What? I hope not

A few years ago, immediately following the wedding of Mr. D. Trump and the latest Mrs. Trump, I watched at PBI as his wingletted B727 whizzed by unmistakeably marked with 'TRUMP' in five foot high gold lettering below the crown, clipping the horizontal tailplane of a Lockheed Jetstar parked on the ramp.

Severe embarrassment as they taxied back, while the happy couple were ingloriously delayed a few hours on their mission of wedded bliss!

The second departure was a less hurried affair.
