Default Another AirBus-320 question

I was lead to believe the B-52's wing took a negative angle of attack when
the engines lost power. For the crew, that is nice to know that this is
not true.



I think you will find, with ANY airplane, that the angle of attack is
solely dependant upon the airspeed and the weight. It would not be
expected to change in any way by any power setting, from zero to
max.

Notice that this is definately NOT true for a powered rotary wing
aircraft! :-)

I think you might say *range* of available angle of Attack?

Or AOA for straight and level flight?

Because at any weight and airspeed, I've always been able to
pull the nose up or down - changing the AOA.
