2-32 Speeds?

[John Seaborn]

The SGS 2-32 has two categories of critical speeds, the "High
Performance" and "Utility" depending on gross weight.

Looking through the flight manual I see that at 1430lb max gross
Utility Category stall is estimated at 47mph. Red Line in this
category is 139 mph. What I do not see is the Caution Range starting
with the Max Structural Cruising speed (start of yellow arc). Max
aero tow is 110 mph and max ground launch is 86 mph.

Any ideas on the speeds for the start of yellow Caution Range for the
2-32 in Utility mode?

John,

The Type Certificate Data Sheet does not have that info either. You may
want to use Maneuvering Speed, Va, for the start of the Yellow Caution
Range instead, 98 mph for "High Performance" and 94 mph for "Utility"
(from the Flight Manual).
