Default AoA keep it going!

The inside wing; it travels a lesser distance while
sinking the same amount as the outside wing.

No one seems to have observed that the AoA is instantaneous
whereas the ASI indicates what the aircraft was doing
moments ago. The AoA is especially useful for helping
students understand relative wind and its consequences;
this cannot be done with the ASI.

A favorite question I use for instruction... Which
wing in a turn has
the greatest angle of attack?


Would you be so kind to give us the answer please ?
