Cammron and squidward I think your confuseing body angle
with angle of attack. You cant visualy relate the two. Check
the body angle of a full-flapped 747 start of flare in a 45kt
h/w and the same one in zero wind - in both cases the AoA
will be the same but with difering body angles.

The wing design of the Scarebus 321 is diferent from that of
say the 800srs 737. Body angle by itself only becomes a
factor with ref to tailstrike risk.
