Surely in gliding flight the wings must be pulling the fuselage
forwards..........otherwise you would stop!

would be in 1"G" straight and level flight. the failure occurred because
the fuselage holding the wings apart was removed allowing them to react
as you describe.

rejected all the explanations put forward by knowledgeable contributors
to this forum. So when you find the answer from other sources please
let us know the outcome so that we can all learn something.
