Pitching moment at large AoA

@RetiredF4 and Henra;

Perhaps you should have another look at Figure 6 in the document linked by
zumBeispiel six weeks ago. Admittedly that is not an A330, but what makes it different?

we have to get the wind flowing over the lifting devices by increasing speed (which is the ultimate reason to decrease the AOA).
First you have to reduce AoA to unstall the wing, then you need to increase speed to not stall again.
