Gull winged aircraft. I absolutely love the shape of the wing design. There are some obvious choices, Corsair, stuka, BTD Destroyer, but I found a repository of inverted gull wing aircraft to choose from.

I'd really be into this, it wouldn't be too hard to find different aircraft for everyone to do.

Hiw about calling it 'Bent Winged Birds'?
That way we could include Phantoms--since they had both a bent wing and bent tail?

Sure they are, they're bent exactly where they meet the fuselage... :wink:

That's a true 'Gull Wing" type. The F4U and Ju-87 are "Inverted Gull Wing" types...
