High wing anhedral
Hey guys..
Recently attended an interview with an airline and got the following Q which I could not answer. Maybe you could help?
Why has the Pa28 Dihedral?
-For stability purposes
Ok, the C172 have high wings, why does it not have dihedral?
-Because its naturally stable. It has CG underneath..
Ok, then, but the BAE 146, its got anhedral angle, why does it so?
-Because they wanted to reduce some of the stability, thus anhedral angle
Ok, but look at the C172, it has not got anhedral angle, why does it not??
Now, here I could not continue.
The best thing I can come up with now after the interview is:
They wanted it to be stable, haha...
No but seriously.
Why?
