If you are a seasoned pilot or you like to fly T Tail jets read this PDF file which is the public enquiry into the Papa India crash at Staines in 1972 involving a Trident a/c

It was after this accident that Voice Cockpit recorders became mandatory in UK and also pilot training was radically changed so that everyone on the flight deck was monitoring each other instead of kowtowing to the captain skygod.
Lack of monitoring was also the reason for the dreadful Teneriffe accident when the KLM captain blatently ignored ATC and began his take off run (he was a very senior captain in KLM and was worshipped by other crew).
Remember a good landing is one you can walk away from.

The issue with "super stalls" with T-tail aircrafts have always been a  known problem (ineffective recovery pitching capabilities)
There are several prototypes that have been lost in their test-flight status due to this behavior.
But thankfully the aerodynamic issue causing this has been taken care of as good as the egnineers are capable of today.
Also remember that the superstall phenomena is not exclusive to rear-engine/T-tail aircrafts, just "associated".

The SAAB Draken was also known for its tendency to superstall.
