Do you live at the airport FlyingAnts? You always seem to catch the good stuff.

Hi mate …..

Nah 😀 even though it looks like i do sometimes :p , We do get some good heads up which obviously helps 😎 .

The 146 uses servo tabs, Wikipedia has a good article. Essentially, the pilots operate the tabs, which in turn aerodynamically moves the elevator instead of being mechanically powered by hydraulics or human strength. The MD-80 is the same.

I don’t know too much about the 146 but whats with the third picture when you look at the tailplane, are they just for pitch or a combined pitch/ roll or does it have some sort of elevator disconnect – Mike
