[NSRCA-discussion] Swept wings?

[Scott McNickle]

I'm really curious as to how they avoid roll coupling with a highly swept wing like that.  The conventional wisdom for years was that sweep acts like dihedral, with the 'forward going' wing presenting more area to the airstream and thus making more lift, resulting in roll with rudder.
Hoping someone can straighten me out on my apparent misconception!
