That's what MDD engineers said until they went back and ran the numbers.
BTW, if you ever compare an F-15 to an F-5, you will see that the
horizontal stabilizers on the F-15 are about the same size as the wings
of the F-5.

Fortunately, they forgot to tell the plane that.

Famous incident of an F-8 Crusader from Aviano, Italy. It took off and
recovered with no damage. Back in the late 1950s or early 60s.
