Anomaly | Deviation - Altitude Excursion From Assigned Altitude Inflight Event / Encounter Wake Vortex Encounter |
Narrative:
Shortly after leveling off at 10000 ft we experienced wake turbulence with an updraft causing the aircraft to rise above our target altitude. I immediately returned the aircraft to our assigned altitude.vigilant monitoring with the expectation of wake turbulence and/or windshear will aid in a faster response time to corrective action.
