Plastic planes are fast but landing speed too high

I received some marketing brouchures from one of the best
selling "composite plane" on the market, with an invitation
to take a ride. Well, I was tempted until I found out how high
the Vso is. The plane goes in on final at 80 kts.
Which means, 80 kias is the speed you use for emergency
landing.

I wasn't aware that 80 KIAS was all that fast.
