Couple questions
Has anyone reached a concensus on V speeds, or is there much variation
between individual aircraft? I'd like to have starting points for
Vs(vans gives Vso), Vx, Vy, Va and Vmmo.
Second question, for those that got a higher gross wt than Van's
recommended 2700, did you come up with a justification for your DAR?
Something like whether Van's figure is for utility category or normal
category? I know on 2 place RV's folks have calculated back from the
known requirements for aerobatic flight to show that for the stated
aerobatic wt and balance Gs that a certain wt would fall withing normal
or utility G limits. Of cpurse that doesn't work for the -10 that isn't
designed for aerobatic use. Not saying one needs justification, but
would be nice to have.

Here's what I use. I'm sure there's debate about what constitutes "best
glide" and other parameters.
I can't speak to GW increases.

My DAR never said anything about my using 2800 pounds.
