ASI colour markings
« on: August 03, 2007, 04:01:35 AM »
I want to mark the ASI (in knots) with the standard V Speeds colours for the Long-EZ at Max weight of 1325 lb.  

Vso  Stall in landing configuration  ?
Vs    Stall (clean) ?
Vfe   Max flap extended (maybe brake extended!) ?
Vno  Max turbulent air speed 120 KIAS (from the POH)
Vne  190 KIAS (from the POH)

Any info would be most welcome

Go to 3000 ft in the clean configuration and slow down until the nose decides to fall----use that speed.

Then do the same with the gear and brake down.

Don't mark the flap configuration.  

The airspeed indicator should be marked for your airplane.
