When doing the final landing tail first with three huge landing legs / fins in the front of the airstream wouldn't have been unstable? IS KERBAL LYING TO ME?!?!? 🤓😂

Stability is controlled by (very) rapid movement of rear & fwd fins during entry & landing, as well as ACS thrusters. The smaller leeward “fin” would simply be used as a leg.
