By "bumped the

him. Bad on me if "bumped the limit" is too idiomatic a phrase for an
international forum such as this.


The limit for this particular Nimnus 4 DM is (as mentioned several
times in this thread before) 350 kp/h TAS or 260 kp/h IAS at 6.000
meters.

So he didn't need to bump any limit at all...

Happy new year!
