I have experimentally determined the lift curve and the lift to drag ratio for given AoAs. Please note that these reflect ONLY the values for wings. Just for clarity, that is two overlapping lines. This graph tells us two things: 1.) The relationship curve between AoA and Lift remains the same at all speeds and altitutes, 2.) Maximum lift generation is achieved at 30°. If you're on a fatal trajectory like heading for the ground or the VAB, get to 30°. Only go above this if you're
