    Funny but I don't hear any newscast mentioning the name of the builder of this aircraft?

    I did but don't remember the make. I think it was a French make.
    Found it: French-Italian-built ATR 72

    Yes, I think you are right. Looking at images of t-tails, they are elevated pretty far above the fuselage. I was imagining them projecting straight out from the fuselage, like on an older plane.

    Those in the middle could have used their oar as sails (paddlesails?)
