Airspeed indicator markings (yellow, green, white arcs)
Can a steam gauge ASI be used in an EAB aircraft that has arcs that do not match the accepted (published plans, POH, operating limits, etc.) applicable V speeds?
Thanks to all in advance.

There are instrument shops all over (not as many for steam gauges as there use to be).....
Have them re-do the face plate. In fact you might be able to do it yourself.
