In rectilinear horizontal flight, the angle of attack of the aircraft increases with increasing speed, adding to the aircraft the lift created by the wing. However, the inductive reactance also increases. The angle of attack of an aircraft is denoted by the Greek letter "alpha" and means the angle that is located between the chord of the wing and the direction of the air flow velocity. It can be positive or spatial. Last modified: 2025-01-23 12:01
