Umm... lower wingloading tends to improve climbrates and turn rates. It can adversley effect "agility", making a plane roll sluggishly. In general, at lower speeds low wingloading is good, at higher speeds however you do not want as low a wingloading figure - a higher wingloading implies less drag. There is an optimal wingloading for a given speed range to balance turn/climb vs roll and quickness of response.
