Default RE: Why Lifting Stab?

I agree with the above comment, on any modern design the tail lift DOWN, not up. By having the airfoil as the Telemaster does, any increase in speed dectreases that down force on the tail and keeps the plane from zooming with increased speed. Even on the Telemaster, the tail is lifting down in spite of the airfoil shape.
