Hi,
I've got a UMA airspeed indicator that is supposed to be marked for RV-7s and 8s. The part number on the unit matches the part number listed on Van's web site. (IF UMA-16-311-241D) I bought in new in the box from another member here on VAF.
I was looking at it recently and noticed the airspeed markings are wrong. The white arc ends at 103 kts. VNE is @ 210 kts, VNO is at 180 kts, and VA is @ 135 kts. These numbers don't match the recommendations from Vans at all.
Has anybody else run into this?
TIA,
Guy
