Hello I am writing from Italy
I converted my KITFOX IV SPEEDSTER and I would ask information

Can you tell me the speed parameters allowed by the speedster VNE - VNO - VSO (green bow - red bow - yellow bow)

and structural loading positive (G +)?

Best regards

Sauro Salvucci

Hello saurofox, for airspeed markings please refer to Skystar Service Letter #27a (http://www.kitfoxaircraft.com/support/service_letters/sl27a.htm)

[edit] I would add that no VA (maneuvering speed, the speed at which full and abrupt control movement can be applied without causing structural damage) is noted in the Service Letter, however, my KF 4-1200 P.O.H. lists the following:

VA Maneuvering Speeds:

Classic 4 (1050 lb Gross Weight) w/ Rotax 503 = 96mph
Classic 4 (1200 lb Gross Weight) w/ Rotax 912 = 102mph
Model 4-1200 (1200 lb Gross Weight) w/ Rotax 912 = 102mph
Speedster (1200 lb Gross Weight) w/ Rotax 912 = 106mph
