Airliners
Most modern airliners adjust the angle of the tailplane to trim during flight as fuel is burned and the center of gravity moves. These adjustments are handled by adjustable (in angle of attack) horizontal stabilizers. However, such adjustable stabilizers are not the same as stabilators; a stabilator is controlled by the pilot's control yoke (or stick), and an adjustable stabilizer is controlled by the trim system. One example of an airliner with a genuine stabilator used for flight control is the Lockheed L-1011.
