Look upon VGs as an experiment. Without an approved amendment to the Flight Manual, it will be up to you to determine safe tow and approach speeds.

Remember that at lower airspeeds the engine runs hotter and you might be changing jugs more frequently.


British Columbia Royal Canadian Air Cadets use C182Ps. Here's a link to their Aircraft Operating Instruction - https://bc-aircadetleague.com/wp-con...-aois-2017.pdf

They have some mods, described on page 1-1, which include VGs (there is an STC number there), leading edge cuffs, wing strengthening and extensions).
