Anyone have any ideas why the TE probe is on the left tip of the
horizontal stab of the just announced JS-1 EVO?

Don't think that probes in that tailplane location would survive long on
a typical gliding airfield.

Agree....Well at least you will not bend it or break it when you put on or
take off the tail dolly. Now, I realize the end is pointed skyward, but I
sure hope that it's not at the height that it could poke someone in the
eye....

Note: Understanding of the above will be improved by previous experience of
Christmas in the U.S.
