Angle of attack = cord line to relative wind. It the cordline is positive then you could have lift(with enough speed and in good clean air) if you flip the wing as long as the cord line to relative wind is positive you can keep flying. If you reduce aoa you decend. Kinda like a sports car(f1) the spoiler is there to push the car back down. Works the same way as our wing just tilting the angle of attack the opiate direction.
