Narrative:

We departed albuquerque on runway 8 following the noise abatement profile with an altitude clearance to 11000. The first officer was flying and had established a body angle of a little over 20 degrees with the proper speed and stable. It was quite cool, the WX was clear and the aircraft was light. When he called for flaps up, I did that and checked the DME, looked outside for traffic, proximity to the mountains ahead of us and knew he had started the turn to the assigned heading at the 13.5 DME. Tower called, reclred us to 8000 and told us to contact departure. I acknowledged the clearance and during the transmission the first officer said, 'you're not getting out', in other words, no transmission. That was the beginning of the problem. I looked to my left and down at the 02 panel to check the microphone selector switch -- ok -- looked up and checked airspeed -- ok and stable at 200/210 KTS -- very quick glance to visually check bank angle -- ok -- mountains -- ok. In almost one continuous movement I continued to the right and looked down at the radio panel. The transmitter selector was in flight interphone position. I switched to #1, acknowledged transmission, reset altitude alert to 8000 and was about to change frequency. This should have been the end of the problem. As I reached down to switch frequency both so and I heard our flight number and nothing else. I hesitated an instant, looked up at my window sill to double-check frequency, looked back down at radio panel and changed frequency. I remember a thought flashed through my mind and thinking 'better check the aircraft'. Microseconds later the altitude alert went off and we received a verbal 'bank angle' warning. I had never heard the bank angle warning before and it got my attention. I assisted with forward pressure and we corrected the overbank. It happened quickly enough that the speed stayed stable. We never exceeded 45 degree bank and we stopped the altitude at 8400 ft. This entire sequence of events probably took place in 10 seconds or less. Even in retrospect, I don't think this was an extremely dangerous situation, just uncomfortable and disconcerting to me as I feel I let my crew down and I must accept the ultimate responsibility. It sure as hell won't happen again.

Title: ACR MLG EXPERIENCES ALT OVERSHOOT ON CLB AND MINOR LOSS OF ACFT CTL ON DEP FROM ABQ.

Narrative: WE DEPARTED ALBUQUERQUE ON RWY 8 FOLLOWING THE NOISE ABATEMENT PROFILE WITH AN ALT CLRNC TO 11000. THE FO WAS FLYING AND HAD ESTABLISHED A BODY ANGLE OF A LITTLE OVER 20 DEGS WITH THE PROPER SPD AND STABLE. IT WAS QUITE COOL, THE WX WAS CLR AND THE ACFT WAS LIGHT. WHEN HE CALLED FOR FLAPS UP, I DID THAT AND CHKED THE DME, LOOKED OUTSIDE FOR TFC, PROX TO THE MOUNTAINS AHEAD OF US AND KNEW HE HAD STARTED THE TURN TO THE ASSIGNED HDG AT THE 13.5 DME. TWR CALLED, RECLRED US TO 8000 AND TOLD US TO CONTACT DEP. I ACKNOWLEDGED THE CLRNC AND DURING THE XMISSION THE FO SAID, 'YOU'RE NOT GETTING OUT', IN OTHER WORDS, NO XMISSION. THAT WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE PROBLEM. I LOOKED TO MY L AND DOWN AT THE 02 PANEL TO CHK THE MIC SELECTOR SWITCH -- OK -- LOOKED UP AND CHKED AIRSPD -- OK AND STABLE AT 200/210 KTS -- VERY QUICK GLANCE TO VISUALLY CHK BANK ANGLE -- OK -- MOUNTAINS -- OK. IN ALMOST ONE CONTINUOUS MOVEMENT I CONTINUED TO THE R AND LOOKED DOWN AT THE RADIO PANEL. THE XMITTER SELECTOR WAS IN FLT INTERPHONE POS. I SWITCHED TO #1, ACKNOWLEDGED XMISSION, RESET ALT ALERT TO 8000 AND WAS ABOUT TO CHANGE FREQ. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE END OF THE PROBLEM. AS I REACHED DOWN TO SWITCH FREQ BOTH SO AND I HEARD OUR FLT NUMBER AND NOTHING ELSE. I HESITATED AN INSTANT, LOOKED UP AT MY WINDOW SILL TO DOUBLE-CHK FREQ, LOOKED BACK DOWN AT RADIO PANEL AND CHANGED FREQ. I REMEMBER A THOUGHT FLASHED THROUGH MY MIND AND THINKING 'BETTER CHK THE ACFT'. MICROSECONDS LATER THE ALT ALERT WENT OFF AND WE RECEIVED A VERBAL 'BANK ANGLE' WARNING. I HAD NEVER HEARD THE BANK ANGLE WARNING BEFORE AND IT GOT MY ATTN. I ASSISTED WITH FORWARD PRESSURE AND WE CORRECTED THE OVERBANK. IT HAPPENED QUICKLY ENOUGH THAT THE SPD STAYED STABLE. WE NEVER EXCEEDED 45 DEG BANK AND WE STOPPED THE ALT AT 8400 FT. THIS ENTIRE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS PROBABLY TOOK PLACE IN 10 SECONDS OR LESS. EVEN IN RETROSPECT, I DON'T THINK THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION, JUST UNCOMFORTABLE AND DISCONCERTING TO ME AS I FEEL I LET MY CREW DOWN AND I MUST ACCEPT THE ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY. IT SURE AS HELL WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.
