It helps the plane balance. And on the planes tail it has two flaps on each side, and when these flaps go up it lifts the tail and the plane goes down, and when the flaps go down then then plane goes up.

If two planes intersect do they intersect in exactly one plane?
No, two planes do not intersect in exactly one plane unless the planes are exactly overlapping, making one plane. In Euclidean Geometry two planes intersect in exactly one line.
Where does plane ABC and plane DCG intersect at?
the intersection of planes DCG and EAB
Is it true that only one plane can pass through one and a point that is not on the line?
If you mean "only one plane can pass through another plane and through a point that is not on the line formed by the intersection of the two planes," the answer is "no." If you rotate the plane about the point, it will still intersect the line unless it is parallel to the line. By rotating the plane, you have created other planes that pass through the unmoved plane and through the point that is not on the line formed by the intersection of the two planes.
Is it true that three planes can intersect in only one point?
The intersection of three planes can be a plane (if they are coplanar), a line, or a point.
Can two planes intersect in infinitely many points?
yes, it may be the two plane intersect at one line or the two planes are coincident.
Does a plane have 5 engines?
A plane which has 2engines on their wings 1 is also in the Tail of the Plane same with if a planes wings had 4 engines it also has one in the Tail of the Plane
Where is the black box on a plane?
the black box is in the tail of all public planes
Is the Titanic the biggest crash ever?
No! there been even worse ones like planes exploding. The tail falling off planes then the plane crashes. Planes braking apart on the runway.
Do planes look like they are flying backwards when viewed from space?
It depends on the angle. From a plane flying past another plane at a higher speed, it can appear that the slower plane is flying backward, tail-first.
Why doe aeroplanes need a tail?
that is needed to help the plane to balanceActually the planes 'TAIL' is called an elevator and an ELEVATOR is used for lift off and landing . It controls the way a plane goes up and down.By Samantha DudleyFirst Maori Female InternationalPilot
Who invented by planes?
well the first inventor of planes and technically the first inventor of by planes were the wright brothers because there first plane was a by plane
What World War 2 plane had a gun globe in the back?
You're probably thinking of the B-29, though there were other planes that also had a tail-gun.
Where are the elevators on a plane?
on the tail of the plane
If two planes intersect do they intersect in exactly one plane?
No, two planes do not intersect in exactly one plane unless the planes are exactly overlapping, making one plane. In Euclidean Geometry two planes intersect in exactly one line.
What do you call a plane that has 2 sets of planes?
3 planes together
How long is planes?
It depends on which plane.
What are weather planes?
A weather plane is a plane that fly's through hurricanes.
