IN CPL

The wing stalls at the critical angle of attack, whatever the speed.

ON THE A320

In normal law the flight controls limit angle of attack. Alpha floor sets full thrust automatically near the stall.

ASKED IN INTERVIEWS

“What is alpha floor?”

An autothrust protection that commands TOGA thrust when the angle of attack gets too high.

A320 links describe the aircraft in general terms for study. Always follow your airline's FCOM and approved manuals.
