Angle of attack is the line draw on the plane while tracing the angle of attack of the clubhead
Assuming if we have a laser sitting perpendicular to the plane (or a Flash Light in Homer’s day) tracing the Angle of attack line, the projection of the laser on the ground = the Angle of approach.

The Angle of Attack is the arbitrary straight line drawn Down Plane between Impact Point and Low Point. The Arc of Attack is the actual curved paththe Clubhead Covers as it orbits Down Plane through the same two points, i.e., the curved Clubhead blur through Impact. The Angle of Approach and the Arc of Approach are those same two lines as seen by the player on the ground from his Above Plane view. These are illusions because they are actually inscribed on the face of the Plane.
As the Clubhead Covers the Arc of Attack and Arc of Approach, it always Traces ('points at' ) the true Geometric Plane Line, i.e., the straight Line Base Line of the Inclined Plane (normally the Target Line). In so doing, it neither traces nor covers the Angle of Attack orAngle of Approach.
So, except when using the Hitter's Angle of Approach procedure, the Clubhead never covers or traces the Angles of Attack or Approach. Instead, it covers the Arcs of Attack and Approach as it traces the Geometric Plane Line.
Thankfully, all this happens automatically when you 'Trace the Straight Plane Line' through Impact with the Right Forearm and #3 Pressure Point (Right Index Finger).
Said another way, through Impact, a correct Golf Stroke (performed with a laser beam at the Right Forefinger) will only Trace, i.e., point at, the true Geometric Plane Line. In so doing, the clubhead will always cover its Visual Equivalents, the Arc of Attack and the Arc of Approach. It will point at or cover the Angle of Attack and the Angle of Approach only at Impact and Low Point.
All this sounds tough, doesn't it? Stay with us and read this a year from now.

Is it be safe to say, that the direction of the clubhead after impact would peel away the illusion of Angle and Arc appraoches since Angle still goes straight and Arc curves inward?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, Mike, but I'll go ahead and answer anyway: "I don't think so."
Even post-Impact, the player sees "through" the Plane and thus the Angle and Arc of Approach Delivery Lines that are actually on the Plane appear on the ground.

I was thinking about the right arm driving crossline in a Hit stroke with an Angle Hinge toward right field vs a Horizontal Hinge Action of the Swing stroke that rolls the face shut.

It will be animal crackers and duck soup.
It is not that tough with a bit of visual may be.
Angle of approach - from the golfer's view
Angle of Attack - From the front, looking at the golfer.

I have a question regarding this video demonstration. The laster light is placed at right angles to the plane and therefore the light beam tracing the arc of approach on the ground is seemingly going to be different to the golfer's viewpoint of the arc of approach - where the eyes are looking down through the inclined plane from a far more vertical angle. Which is the "correct" arc of approach?
