Unbraced tailplanes Bf109F-1
I have an old Anthony Pritchard Messerschmitt book from 1975 that mentions on page 60 the unbracing of the F-0 and F-1 tailplane that ultimately caused several fatal crashes in tests.
Is this structural error be the fault of engineers trying to make the tail lighter or more rigid? Or does this have to deal with the rudder?
