    The author considers the stationary inviscid supersonic flow in two dimensions; it is described by the Euler system. The flow hits the infinite curved wedge along the direction perpendicular to the edge of the wedge. The wedge is a small perturbation of the straight wedge, its angle is less than some critical value. The author shows that under these assumptions a shock attached at the wedge exists globally.
