What is the average angle planes wings they need to fly?

Question

The planes I am talking about are everyday passenger plane's, not fighters. Do you know what the angle needs to be for it to create enough lift so the plane can fly?

Do you mean Angle of Attack? – Bianfable Jun 04 '20 at 11:50 — Bianfable, Jun 04 '20 at 11:50

The angle of attack airplanes fly at while cruising is called the optimum angle of attack (around 4 degrees) which meets the max.(L/D).
