Hi Jeff,NX18235 is equipped with an uncalibrated Johnson Airspeed indicator. I fly it by feel more than by reference to the airspeed indicator but here are my WAG's:Vso = 28 -32 mphVx = 50 mphVy = 55 mphVno = 72 - 75 mphVne = At 100 mph the controls tighten up and the airplane is telling me to "Back off, fool!"Vref = 50 - 55 mphVa = 65 mphAgain, these numbers are based on "feel" and not on any kind of scientific testing.Greg CardinalMinneapolis----- Original Message -----

Note that this is an "indicated" speed. My indicated stall speed is 29 mph,but as referenced with a GPS, it is really about 35 mph. I agree with Gregwith his speeds. Mine are about the same. I have never had mine anywhereclose to 100 mph. It starts feeling weird about 90.Jack PhillipsNX899JPRaleigh, NC-----Original Message-----
