Content: The low wing design makes it much more challenging to closely look at the underside of the wings. It’s still possible to inspect the underside of the wings, of course, but some pilots may not make the effort to do so because of the difficulty involved, which is a mistake. Comfort Level
What type of plane do you have experience flying? For many pilots, the decision comes down to what plane they feel the most comfortable in. If you have only flown low wing planes, it may be a good idea to stick to this design unless you are eager to try something new. But, it’s best to try before you buy, so take a high wing aircraft up in the air before you commit to buying one for yourself. If you’ve flown both, you may find that you get a better feeling in one over the other. Some pilots don’t like the idea of walking on the wings to get into a low aircraft, while others may prefer flying a low wing to a high wing plane. It doesn’t matter why you prefer one to the other—trust your instincts and choose the type that you think you will enjoy the most. Shade
Temperatures can rise inside an aircraft if you’re flying on a hot summer day, which is why many pilots love the relief from the heat that a high wing plane provides.
