Without debating the idea of high wing vs low wing as far as flying
advantages, the "perception" (right or wrong)of the high wing is a lower
& slower plane . When have you seen a jet fighter with a high wing??


Well, the Panavia Tornado and the F-15 Eagle to mention just two. I
suppose you could argue it's more of a shoulder wing, but they certainly
aren't low wing planes.
