Steven The L1011 had a full flying Stabilizer. It was not one piece. It had two "Elevators". The elevators were controlled by a cable system that raised the elevators at high angle of attack ( low speed ). They performed a similar function as flaps. They increased the camber of the stabilizer (increased pitch authority at low speed). This allowed the use of a narrower lower drag stabilizer at cruse speed.

The L-1011 was before my time and I never got to fly in one, but from what I hear it was one of the most reliable airliners ever produced. It's one of the few mass-produced airliners that never had a crash due to mechanical failure (all crashes were due to weather or pilot error). Unfortunately, however, it cost a lot to manufacture and entered the market a bit too late to be able to compete effectively with the DC-10 and 747-100.

Question: When ever has been the service of the US based Airlines good? Not in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s or 2010s. They never really cared about their passengers. The only decent US Airline was PanAm, the Winner Airline of the Cold War and the Loser Airline at the End of the Cold War in the early 1990s.
