Default My first 100 Bus hours- reflections on the A-320

But I've heard that it's the dihedral that causes difficulties in
banking heavy cargo airplanes, and that was how the anhedral concept

Ah....I bet that discussion dealt with "high" wing cargo planes where
all of the load is below the wing such as in the C-5 with its anhedral.
The same situation doesn't hold true for a "low" wing cargo plane where
most of the load is carried above the wing. :-) Long distance
communications is difficult....Eh?
