A canard configuration places its horizontal surface

  • A.On top of the fin
  • B.Within the wing
  • C.Ahead of the wing
  • D.Behind the wing

Answer: C

A foreplane ahead of the centre of gravity is destabilising in the same way a forward wing is, so stability must be obtained by careful placement of the centre of gravity. The compensation is that the foreplane lifts upward in trim rather than downward.
