What makes a high wing "high"
Or better yet, are there rules of thumb for the vertical placement of a wing in the fuselage?
A mid wing appears to have the wing right on the thrust line.
A low wing is below the thrust line.
A shoulder wing is above the thrust line.
A high wing is higher than the shoulder.
A shoulder though seems to be an arbitrary protrusion on the fuselage.
Finally, if say you take any stik type of plane, put half a bubble canopy on the wing, and build a turtle deck that eventually blends in with the vertical fin, do you still have a shoulder wing aircraft?
Thanks!
