[WWI] Added:Nieuport 28 and more!

I have seen the term "anhedral" used before.  The example that comes to
mind refers to the nose wings on Formula 1 cars.  I would think that this
could also be applied to the Corsair and/or Stuka.
Maybe it's anhedral if you want it... and negative dihedral if you don't?

Andy,

I am going by what I have read on aerodynamics. They all state that the
opposite of dihedral is anhedral.
