What is the tail height of the aircraft?

• A. 32' 4"
• B. 33' 2"
• C. 31' 9"
• D. 34' 0"

Answer: (A)

Tail height is the vertical distance from the ground to the top of the aircraft when it’s on its landing gear. This clearance matters for things like hangars, jet bridges, and ground equipment to ensure they can reach or clear the aircraft without contact. For the ERJ 175, the official tail height is 32 feet 4 inches, so the correct value is 32'4". The other options would either be higher (implying more clearance than the aircraft actually needs) or lower (risking tail contact); the 32'4" figure matches the manufacturer’s specification for this aircraft.
