Posted in the other MOSAIC thread also discussing Van's input, but worth repeating ...

Interesting that Van's quoted the stall speeds of the -10 and -14 in CAS and not IAS, as they have done previously. So they have made some effort to quantify the static position and instrument errors at low speeds and make the correction from IAS to CAS. Glad to see that. It's a necessary step to show compliance with any new rule.

"In addition, the clean stall speeds of the RV-14 and RV-10 aircraft are 61 KCAS and 65 KCAS respectively."​
