imho its the legs, and its a tension strut btw. At very high angles of
attack the load pulls the wings forward. I found that hard to believe
too but it's true. It was first realized when an early glass glider
clapped its wings in a high G pullup and they clapped in front of the
pilots eyes. He survived to tell the tail.

Hi Graham, after he survived to tell the tale, what was it he told the tail ?
Cheers,
