when I had but three weeks on my -6a I
was feeling my oats one day and saw a twin about 1000' below going my
direction. I dove down beside it only to notice that I was doing about
240mph. like I said, I was feeling my oats that day and cranked off a huge
loop. I won't ever repeat these stupid moves, I am much in touch with
airspeed simply through stick feel now, but it does point out a lot of wiggle
room in the 210 vne figure.

Hi Ernest,
He will not be the first to upgrade the Vne. Tracy Saylor turns
about 243 mph around the course. Hopefully they test it at altitude with
chute.

I don't mean to butt my nose
in where it doesn't belong, and I don't
know much about those
RV-thingies you guys are flying around in, but
didn't you say you were
up against a Vne of 210 in the last race? Have
you added some duct
tape since then, or have you 're-rated' your airplane?
