Does anyone know what the V-Speeds are for the RV-12?
I assume that some have to comply with LSA such as Vso and Vc but I have not heard what Vne, Vno, Va, Vfe, Vr are. Perhaps one of you have.
I have to say, after seeing the -12 in person and attending Van and Ken's lecture at SnF, I am really impressed with it. It is easily one of the top LSA designs out there, especially for the money. I don't think that the current FAA moratorium on kits will effect the -12, but who can tell for sure. I think the biggest problem is the week dollar and the rising cost of the Rotax engines. Maybe if all the LSA manufacturers got together with Rotax they could work out a deal.
