I think VNE for this glider is actually much faster than that. 154 kts.

Janusz Kęsik,
(the Eastern Bloc crap pilot)
Isn't Vne for this glider 255 kph?
H. Miranda World Record technique:
1. Fill wings with water
2. Find wicked updraft
3. Point nose down a lot
4. Hope wings don't come off
:-]
5. Smile for the camera
