Ok, I don't know much so go easy on me... Thinking about the difference between something like a Falcon XP with the fuselage below the main wing and something like a LongEZ with the canard basically in line with the main wing. Specifically, how does the canard being in line or well below the main wing affect flying qualities? Let's say the wings (and canard) were identical but one had a main high wing and the other a main low wing with the canard the same distance in front.
