Can someone explain how the angle of attack changes with altitude and if trying to hold a constant Mach, True or Indicated airspeed. If trying to maintain a constant mach on a climb, TAS would increase along with Mach (but only because of cooler temp), but IAS would decrease, not sure if the angle of attack would increase or decrease. I think it would decrease. What about for a constant TAS in a decent?
