high alpha flight is in a stall condition, or high angle of attack. like the harrier, that's when the wing stalled and not provide a lot of lift because of the high angle of attack

Thanks Xoon.
I guess I've been flying high alpha for a while, but didn't know what to call it.
I haven't flown it in a while though, but I have a couple of planes that are about off the building board that are probably capable of it.
