that very thing happened to me in a real airplane. i was flying a 172 from northern indiana down to the Texas Hill country to go visit a family friend for a week. I was over arkansas. and there was enough thermal (and convective action) coming off of the ozarks. i was literally adding full forward nose, and my 172 was still climbing at 2000 fpm, past 12,500 feet. i ended up stomping on the rudder and spinning it to get down. one of the scariest things ive ever had happen in a plane.
