many times when trying to cross the pond, we were on the edge of the buffet boundry, the performance charts, showed a very small margin of speed, between the MMM and Stall.....

in Glf5, similar when trying to outclimb CB in Asia.

The solution was to ease nose down, and accelerate, advising ATC of loss of altitude.
the reference to pond was when attempting to obtain level flight prior to entrance.
