An aircraft wing cannot transition from unstalled to fully stalled without a change in AoA.


You are correct. The AOA was increasing, my point is that the a/c retained a similar and extreme AOA to and through the STALL....the entry was gentle, the last portion of the climb was due momentum, not lift, nor power.

May I replace "no change" with "no palpable change" ?
