Ok 120 views and no responses????
I guess I will vote and post to get the ball rolling
My kit 486 is not flying yet but I will post numbers as I remember them from intro flight with Vic and Harrison.
cruise around 90
slow flight around 35
landing around 75'
Just getting the feel for the plane not testing performance

Re: Poll : Who can fly their SuperStol below 20 knots??
Only 10 hours on mine but have seen 25 for the TAS and GS holding a couple feet off the ground.
Top Speed cruise right now is 83 kt
landing around 100 feet. Still new with the plane and haven't pushed the limits on takeoff and landing.
Mine weighed in at 848 lbs
Tried to stay light but have
Garmin G3X touch
ADS-b in and out/ FIS-b
Oratex covered

Have you posted a photo of your Oratex covered SS? I don't recall seeing it. If not I would like to see a photo. Love the product. Wish there were some better colors. Joe B

Just noticed there are no votes on the poll since mine, is it still working - can any of you still vote or is it closed?

I saw 22 knots on my gps yesterday on my downwind leg. I'm not looking inside too much when I get slow and low
