What aircraft uses an inverted gull wing?
The two most famous inverted gull wing aircraft were probably the F4U Corsair and the Ju-87 Stuka, however the design has been used on many other aircraft, especially flying boats.I found this on Wikipedia.see link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gull_wingThe gull wing design found its way into seaplanes by the early 1930s. The gull wing allowed designers to ensure adequate propeller tip clearance over the water by placing the engines on the highest point of the wing.The inverted gull wing was developed at the same time and for the same reason as seaplanes.Vought F4U Corsair http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vought_F4U_CorsairJunkers Ju-87 Stuka http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junkers_Ju_87Aichi B7A http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aichi_B7AI hope that it helps.--RG
