wilyflier,
(b)even so, loss of control stiffness would likely lead to flutter to destruction
very rapidly indeed, coupled with shredding and shedding of trailing edge components., rapid up downbending loads
Sorry to repeat. I've been there seen that.
I would like to add that loss of the trailing edge/elevators would move the CP for the remaining horizontal stabilizer forward, possibly in front of the pivot point. If this happened, then the HS would rotate (upwards or downwards) to the maximum angle mechanically possible ...
