Am I missing something here? Is this a low wing or a high wing?

Rich "Mid Wing" S.


high wing- pat


In that case the strut will be in tension during flight, and compression
while the microlight is on the ground (unless it's very windy). Either
way, the best thing to do is consult the designer and do exactly what
they say.
