For those with Facebook access there's a good picture of the

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....

Santa: And what do YOU want for Christmas, glider boy?

A: (Big breath...)
I-wanna-JS-1-EVO-18-meter-sailplane-with-the-shiny-silver-TE-probe-on-the-left-tip-of-the-horizontal-stab!!!

Santa: (Pause...) You'll poke your eye out, kid!

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

Because the jet version would wash out a centerline probe. No need for a switch to alternate source?
