500 km Triangle at 306 km/hr in Argentina

What's bold about the statement? If he averaged 306, he spent some time
above 306 and some time below 306, right?
Not sure what you're reacting to--I made no accusation. By "bumped the
limit" I mean he went 325, probably for a good bit of the flight. Good on
him. Bad on me if "bumped the limit" is too idiomatic a phrase for an
international forum such as this.

The full text of my post was
Cool.
He probably bumped that limit a few times too, but I suppose that's what
limits and record-setting flights are all about.

Bold statement.
Do you have *any* proof at all...?

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!

Ok, now after you mentioned it several times, I'd finally like to know:
What the hell is a kp/h?

Kilometers per hour, more commonly refered to as km/h (1 km/h = 0.62
mph = 0.54 knots for those of you who are metrically challenged... :-)

Yes. Not to be pedantic, but if the 'p' form is used, it's 'kph'
(kilometers per hour} and never 'kp/h' (kilometers per per hour).

Ah, km/h! I was wondering all the time what the hell he might be
measuring in kiloponds per hour. I finally guessed it must be the rate
of water dump, but this didn't really make any sense...

To be completely correct, it probably needs to be named kmph
(KiloMeters Per Hour), but since I've seen the term kph or kp/h used
by many metrically challenged people on ras, I decided to use this
term...
