Hi Bear;

At its zenith ...
The airplane’s altitude reached its maximum of about 38,000 ft, its pitch attitude and
angle of attack being 16 degrees
.
At that point the v/s became rapidly -10k ft/min and the AoA continued to increase except for a short period when ND inputs were made and the SW sounded again.
