Airplanes and Accounting Games: The Coming Boeing Collapse?

It is not "unstable" in that sense.

At high thrust, slow speed, high aoa it is a little too close to neutrally statically stable.

C f. to airliners that can break up from dynamic yaw instability if the yaw dampers fail in some flight regimes.

Thanks for explaining! I suppose I've been using "unstable" a bit too liberally in this thread.
