In some embodiments, a lift augmentation system for a blown lift aircraft includes a blown lift tailplane operatively coupled to the blown lift aircraft. The blown lift tailplane may include a leading edge and a trailing edge, an upper surface and a lower surface, and a first side and a second side. The lift augmentation system may include one or more tailplane thrust-producing devices on the first side and the second side of the blown lift tailplane operatively coupled to the leading edge of the blown lift tailplane. The one or more tailplane thrust-producing devices on the first side and the second side of the blown lift tailplane may produce a plurality of slipstreams corresponding to each of the tailplane thrust-producing devices. The plurality of slipstreams corresponding to each of the tailplane thrust-producing devices may blow over the upper surface and the lower surface of the blown lift tailplane.
