Abstract: An aircraft horizontal tail plane (HTP) of the continuous type, wherein the inner-most ribs of the right-hand side and left-hand side torsion boxes are arranged to have one end joined right at the joint zone where both rear spars meet at axis of symmetry of the HTP. In this way, the loads at this central region of the HTP are concentrated at the joint zone where the inner-most ribs and the rear spars converge. The HTP can be manufactured with a reduced number of components.
