virgo47 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) Hi guys I always wondered what are the thin sheets extruding from the bottom of the horizontal stabilizer on L-39? I couldn't find the answer anywhere, perhaps because I don't know the right words for the question. Also, what kind of antenna is it at the end? I've seen a picture with L-39 antennas in the real-life L-39 manual, but there is nothing at the stabilizer tips: Edited March 16, 2023 by virgo47 L-39, F-5E, F/A-18C, MiG-15, F-86F, C-101, FC3 Yak-52, P-47, Spitfire UH-1H, Ka-50 III NTTR, PG, SY, Chnl, Norm2 Supercarrier, NS430, WWII VKB STECS+Gladiator/Kosmosima DCS Unscripted YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I can easily find the explanation and it all makes sense.
