The FAA, whom I'm starting to like more and more

You can have an LSA that goes 300mph if you promise
not to go over 138mph in straight and level flight.

Not quite.


You can have a LSA that is certified by the manufacturer to have a maximum
speed in level flight at sea level of 120 knots at maximum continuous

Yep.


And if your IAS says 138mph at 10,000. Right?


Babbling idiot.
