Hi,

How are your eyes doing?

You have to take care when out in the sun,
allways :-)!

Not much sun here just now - very, very, grey
and raining most of the time, in short
typical West Coast November weather!

There is another factor, that I forgot to factor in,
about tall fuselages (usually equals long tails),
and that is surface drag.

Eventually the tail feathers can be very small, due
to the combined effects of tail volume and surface drag,
till it is about enough with just the tail boom! Of course,
that then has to be movable, maybe pivoted at CG,
with the forward hull as counterweight :-)!

Or make it like a spine, like some prehistoric flying
creature's tail, that can be whipped from side to side!
