That's what I mean by good looking biplanes. The fuselage LOOKS right. The position of the upper wing seems strange to my eyes which are not quite as young as they used to be

Is the reason for mounting the wing directly on the fuselage aerodynamic or structural? Is it "conventional construction or molded?
