What is the difference between a Human being and a Angel being ?
-
They are not bound to a flesh and blood body
One thing is an angle can fly and that is without using an airplane.
Their strength is far superior than humans and i am sure their intelligence is far greater.
Plus they were created by God and were not birthed.
The ones that did not fall are aware of satans deceptions, especially the ones perpetrated on humans.

That question is answered for us, by the apostle Paul, in the Bible book of 1 Corinthians 15:35-49
38 But God gives it a body as He has designed, and to each kind of seed He gives its own body.​
39 Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another.​
40 There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the splendor of the heavenly bodies is of one degree, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is of another. 41 The sun has one degree of splendor, the moon another, and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.​
42 So will it be with the resurrection of the dead: What is sown is perishable; it is raised imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam a life-giving spirit.​
46 The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven. 48 As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven. 49 And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.​

Although flesh, animals differ to man in some ways. Man differs from celestial beings in abilities also.

We have biblical descriptions of angels who often look like us - or manifest like us and are therefore similar to humans. Do they also therefore image God in crucial respects? They live in a state of glory with access to the Divine presence in a way that only a few of us ever experience in this life. Their strength, supernatural abilities, teleportation capabilities, ability of flight, and capacity to engage in combat with beings as powerful as the devil all distinguish them from mankind as it is. A being that is simply created does not procreate. I have no recollection of an angel ever ceasing to exist, some fall, some are bound but fallen ones end in the lake of fire where their torment is eternal. Angels do not seem to get second chances like we do.

The bigger question for me is what is the difference between a man and an angel after the resurrection when we have our glorified bodies? We will judge angels so will we be on the same level as them then? The incarnation implies that humanity sits on the very throne of God in the person of Jesus Christ. If we share in his glory are the angels also then subservient to us in that state of glory or is the issue of hierarchy irrelevant in a Kingdom where God is all in all and we all bask in His presence?
