Default RE: Advantages of an airfoiled stab?

If the stab is flat bottomed then it is much like the Telemaster line and it MAY affect the flying characteristics similarly. A Telemaster lifts its tail almost immediately on takeoff and you usually get the best results landing on the wheels, not a three point.

Take it for what it's worth but the manufacturer of the Telemaster indicates that the CG is further back than normal as a result of the stab configuration.
