The idea that the fuselage would be sucked down by it's shape (gear up)

will
be a terrible surprise to all those boaters out there with upturned stems.


It won't be a surprise to anyone who's tried to tow a canoe at high speed.
It won't be a surprise to anyone who has put a spoon in the water from the
kitchen faucet.
It wouldn't be a surprise to Glen Curtiss.

This really _has_ been done to death here. Google is your friend.
