Default Ever have a saggy tail?

Ever notice your planes tail seems to sag during level flight somedays? I noticed on a couple planes at different times thier tails seem to sag. Seems to happen randomly on different days. Makes them kinda climb when turning too. Either I'm crazy or my planes get tired and the tails drag [sm=bananahead.gif]. I thought maybe it could be the air temperature or pressure or wind or something. I usually keep my planes pretty nose heavy too,and they seem to fly great most of time except for that stange day....and the next day I dont notice it again. Any know what makes this happen? Could it just be I'm nuts and thier tail heavy? I would think it would take a REALLY tail heavy plane to actually make the tail visually sag in flight....

thoughts?
