Yep.

IV-P Propjet: 74 mph dirty, according to their web site - pretty brisk
for 4-place, SE prop bird.

That means you'd be pushing 80 mph to leave a bare margin for
maneuvering during an emergency landing. Imagine running off the road at
80 mph in your car. Ouch.

(By comparison though, a Bonanza A36 has a Vso of 64 mph, so putting one
of those down in the bushes must be somewhat thrilling, as well.
