During a turn, the stalling angle

  • increases with bank angle.
  • decreases noticeably.
  • remains the same.

Explanation from PART66Online

The stalling angle of attack is a property of the aerofoil and is fixed regardless of manoeuvre. In a turn the increased load factor raises the stalling speed, so the wing reaches that same critical angle at a higher airspeed, but the angle itself does not change with bank.

Hey!

There is nothing to explain. Just a fact. But don't confuse stall angle and stall speed in turn. In turn stall speed will increase in factor of square root of load factor. V(stall in turn) = V(stall) * square_root(load factor). Load factor depends on roll angle.
