Rick,

Do you know what version of the Duckhawk Chip was flying? There
appears to be three versions with progressively higher V speeds and
max wing loadings.


It's the middle model, the DuckHawk SV (Super Veloce), with the 200 knot
Vne.



Not that anyone would ever do such a thing, but you could do a pretty
impressive low pass with that VNE.
