An aircraft is provided including a boundary layer ingestion fan mounted to an aft end of a fuselage. A stabilizer is mounted to the fuselage and extends between a root portion and a tip portion to define a span-wise length and extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge along the longitudinal direction. The stabilizer defines a line of maximum thickness that corresponds to the thickest cross sectional portion of the stabilizer along the span-wise length of the stabilizer. The line of maximum thickness is closer to the leading edge of the stabilizer proximate the root portion than at the tip portion, resulting in a pressure distribution that draws higher velocity air away from an inlet of the boundary layer ingestion fan.
