Unless I'm greatly mistaken, neither RPM nor airspeed limits are

True, but if it is being flown by a sport pilot, it has to meet the
limitations.

This time I was trying a direct answer to his question. The Operating
Limitations (Big "O" Big "P") do not cover speed or rpm. Gauge markings are
covered elsewhere as well. The one thing I (we?) do not want to appear as,
is a beanery lawyer. I have no training in Federal Law other than Fire and
building Codes. The one thing I did learn is when it ends up in court, it's
a whole new ball game. We don't want to go there.
