Clandestino, if you start feeling Gs do you still pull harder or you just relax … ?

If you set and hold 5° and set climb power, the aeroplane will climb, after a while power available goes down with altitude, EAS goes slowly down, AoA goes gently up and aeroplane levels off when AoA reaches five degrees minus wing incidence angle.
Except that 5 degrees of AoA on AF447 and stall warning is already warning, stall itself is just about.

What about a more common sense 2.5 deg pitch ?
