Dave you are creeping me out here. Bella Abzug?
Justin -
V or cruciform (neat word, huh?) tails both work well if properly designed, trimmed well, and flown well.
V tails are harder for some designers that aren't used to them, and they require more effort to trim out well.
There may be some weight or efficiency benefits for a V tail, but they aren't enough for me to detect in the air.
I've given up on them because they are a bitch to pack.

Justin,
For us old geezers, it kinda comes down to a choice between ogling Kathy
Ireland or Bella Abzug.
