The FAA put out a bulletin stating that all small aircraft should have a Manuvering speed recorded in the plane's information manuel??? 

Anyone have any (manuvering airspeed thoughts) input for the MarkIIIX with 100 hp engine?



Thanks,

Subject: MkIII Xtra V speeds

Kolb guys=2C and especially Travis=2C



  I am in the process of rounding up information for my

Operator Limitations manual for my plane.  Could I get a few

of you Xtra owners to post your "V" speeds below in the list I

have provided.



  Also=2C Travis=2C would you be kind enough to post the factory

recommended speeds for these catagories=2C please?



1) Vso--(stall speed=2C or min. flight speed in 'landing' configuration {fl

aps down})_________________

2) Vs--(min. controllable airspeed in steady state flight {flaps up}_______

_____________

3) Vfe--(maximun 'flap extended' stall speed)______________________________

______

4) Vno--(max speed for 'normal' operations)________________________________

_

5) Vne--(never exceed speed)_____________________________________________



  The Kolb factory states that the MkIII Xtra has a 35 mph stall speed=2C a

nd 26 mph

stall speed with flaps extended.  Is this pretty close to what you Xtra own

ers are

experiencing?



  You response is appeciated.  Thanks!!!

Bob, Mine's a IIIC, but I use 60 as Va. That puts me in the white arc so I can drop the flaps a notch if I want to slow down any more.
