- mikeash 9y agoI know of at least one major crash caused by a tail strike, although the problem took years to manifest after a bad repair job: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Airlines_Flight_123 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Airlines_Flight_123 (Worth noting that this airplane's tail strike happened on landing, not takeoff, but it's bad either way.) Definitely best to avoid them if you can....
