Sweep should have more affect as observed dihedral effect. Although both wings on my pattern design pictured above are perfectly flat the airplane exhibits a slight dihedral effect while in flight. As a result the next one built will have 2-3 degrees of anhedral to eliminate this unwanted trait.

My pictures posted IMO is simply an effort to illustrate that there was considerable consideration on a great many details while in the design phase and not some simple hap hazard design. I stand by the idea that pictures can add to the credibility of the information presented.
