VNE vs altitude: glider specs vs rules of thumb
Mike - VNE should not change based on Wing Loading, so ballast should not affect it.
I'm pretty sure both of the units you measured calculate TAS. My LX9070 actually has an Overspeed warning, and it is calibrated to go off based on TAS. Don't ask me how I found this out.
