There seems to always be some jump of logic in every one answer that I have seen (both here and people I've spoken too).

Some people say the outside wing will have a higher angle of attack, others say the outside wing will have a lower angle of attack because its travelling faster.
I believe that the outside wing will have a lower angle of attack because of the outside aileron being deflected up due to having to hold off the bank.

So could the people who've said the outside wing will have a higher angle of attack please give any reasoning to support this statement?
