How's about just looking forward out of the windscreen.
I am trying to reply to the above in a manner that does not start this thread off in the wrong direction.

So let me answer it in its most simple context.

It is impossible to judge angle of attack by just looking forward out of the windscreen.

For those of you not familiar with the subject of angle of attack and angle of attack indicators and their value in staying within the safe envelope of flight I urge you to study the subject.
