Back of the aircraft
The back of an aircraft is more important for flying than most people realize. There is the fin and the "small wings" at the back of the aircraft which are in fact critical in not only keeping the aircraft in the air, but also in controlling it. Most folks focus on the main wings of the aircraft and the engines as being the most important, but the truth is that an airplane cannot fly without the back.
