Flown before, but scared about wings on top
I've flown these jets before and have felt very safe on them. The only thing that concerns me is having the wings on top instead of on the bottom

High wing fears? I doubt that any here actually remember (or have flown aboard) Avro's immediate post war entry into the airliner market, the not so legenday "mid wing' Lancastrian.
