The BEA reported the Cessna 550, performing a flight from Paris Le Bourget (France) to Geneva (Switzerland) encountered problems with their autopilot while climbing through FL230, the pitch angle increased and the aircraft suffered a load factor. The aircraft had been cleared to climb to FL270, but overflew the Embraer ERJ170 that was enroute at FL280. The Cessna crew reported they had a malfunction of the #1 altitude and speed indication system, the transponder therefore reported erroneously they were on FL270. This created a loss of separation with the potential of a collision without triggering TCAS. The BEA rated the occurrence an incident (?) only and opened an investigation.
