Draining fuel from a highwinged airplane is easy to do, visually
checking fuel
levels is easier in a low winged one.
I suspect that someday, when I'm beyond my prime, and arthritis has crept
into my limbs, I'll be forced to buy one of those high-wing "retirement
planes"...
I won't like it as much -- but it'll beat being grounded...
It would be interesting to know the average age of the owners of high-wing
aircraft, versus low-wing. I wonder if it's significantly different?
