How to Evaluate Lift for Unaccelerated Flight?

Lift for Unaccelerated Flight evaluator uses Lift Force = Weight of Body-Thrust*sin(Thrust Angle) to evaluate the Lift Force, The Lift for Unaccelerated Flight refers to the aerodynamic force generated by an aircraft's wings when the aircraft is maintaining a constant velocity without any change in speed or direction, in unaccelerated flight, the lift force produced by the wings exactly balances the weight of the aircraft, allowing it to maintain level flight at a steady altitude. Lift Force is denoted by FL symbol.

How to evaluate Lift for Unaccelerated Flight using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Lift for Unaccelerated Flight, enter Weight of Body (Wbody), Thrust (T) & Thrust Angle T) and hit the calculate button.
