4.6.2.2.2 installation on rear end

The installation on the rear end of an aircraft typically refers to the placement of engines or propulsion systems at the back of the plane, typically on the aft fuselage or tail section.
The rear-end installations can offer advantages such as reduced noise levels, improved fuel efficiency, and increased passenger comfort. However, they can also present challenges related to engine maintenance, vibration, and aircraft stability.
