heh I dunno how many times I've done this in AH, interesting to see it was a problem in R/L too
"The cause turned out to be a manefestation... [of]...compressibility. Aircraft react to its effect in various ways, according to the shape of their wings. On the Typhoon, the effect was to force its nose down beyond the vertical. This a pilot could not rectify until he had reduced speed. The conclusion was that the pilots had simultaneously throttled right back and brought the nose up by using the trimming gear; thus, when speed dropped enough for the controls to act normally, the nose, under full trim, rose so violently that it imposed a breaking strain on the tail unit. It was also found that at high speeds elevator flutter often made the tail section break at the rear fuselage transport joint."
