EHM-1343 Jonathan:
Its disgusting IMO, but, it' ur lopinion, do also like the idea of the wings higher and forward of the fuselage, i think they get called canard foreplanes??

EHM-1539 Pierre:
Right, canard (means duck in french) is most of the time used when additionnal lift and pitch control is needed at lower speeds (see the naval versions of some planes, and planes made to be very manoeuverable at low speeds).

EHM-1001 Robert:
Hehe, in Hungary it is called simply duck-wing ;D
