Most wings are cambered, so that at 0 AoA, there is positive lift. A symmetrical aerofoil with a high enough angle of attack will generate lift, just it will generate a large amount of drag too. If the thrust is high enough to maintain a high enough angle of attack (while avoiding stall) then the plane will maintain speed and altitude, even if upside down. This is aided by the fact that, with a high thrust and AoA, a component of thrust will be opposing weight.
A note on the tanks (and fuel feed lines) is that some fuel supply mechanisms (e.g. float caburetor) rely on gravity to supply fuel, whereas others (e.g. pressure carburetor) do not; obviously you are going to struggle to maintain flight if your engine has stopped due to no fuel supply.

A symmetry airfoil still provides lift in correct direction as long as the angle of attack is correct. Other then that you just make sure you’ve either for some fuel hopers positioned for upside down flight, or have a pressurized fuel tank

Most wings (I really wanna say all...) can generate lift both sides, it's the question if you can easy adjust the angle of attack (hope that's how you call nose-tail up/down). And engine: fuel delivery system. Back in the days regular carbureators wouldn't work... and I wanna say any carburator, I think fuel injection was introduced in aircrafts decades before land vehicles for that reason.

It's nothing to do with wing shape, it all depends on whether Denzel Washington (as William "Whip" Whitaker Sr.,) is the pilot.

Everyone is mentioning camber, angle of incidence, etc. however, i assume the question hinges on 'sustained' inverted flight as opposed to momentary inversions (as almost all AC are capable of momentary inversion), which would be a pressurised fuel system, along with better supporting structure for the airframe...

Arthur Shappey also wants to know how planes can fly upside down

The plane is built for flying upside down if it is in the controls to permit it to do so. The wings of the plane will be facing horizontal parallel as in when a plane is facing upwards. The engine must be a shape to be able to fuel the plane in any position.

Have a think about the cups you'd give the passengers too. And if you'd need to have oxygen masks in the floor.

Are you sure you didn’t pick out a question that was meant for the engineering interview, by mistake?
If I prepared months in advanced for a physics interview, studying mechanics, electrostatics, thermodynamics, and then got a question about planes flying upside down and engines, I would be pretty mad

And what it would mean for anyone travelling in the plane.

Is the pilot extremely drunk?

Jesus college? Was it named after it's founder? 😅

If it goes fast enough to feel centripetal force from earth’s gravity.

hey there! whilst applying for ucas, i bymistakenly clicked on 'other fundings' when the funding page came up.. will that eliminate me from getting scholarship chances?? do i have to send an email clarifying this?
