It was probably the same as that out-of-control food cart that rolled down the ailse to the back of Flight 587 and destroyed the tailfin!

I thought 'tailfins' went out in the late fifties/early sixties - did they SOMEHOW make a comeback for *style* reasons in the field of aeronautics?

(Methinks this poor person is referring to a 'vertical stabilizer'. NTSB report)
