185 may not be fast, but you are the coolest guy at the airport when you land.

Still on the slow side, but that is what fixed gear and bubble windows do for you. A NA 210 with the same engine (520) with the same power setting would be about 160 kts TAS. But not as cool  Rgs, Patrick

Strap on floats and your down to 115-120 kts, skis about 120-125 kts. Username Protected wrote: Throttle=firewalled GS=132knts I know.... There was some headwind. Actual TAS was about 143.

Stretch between the rudder pedals in the KA. I pulled the cabin dividers out to get more room also. I wish more airplanes had room to fit your feet between the pedals to stretch out.
Used to fly a Piper Vagabond and solo you could sit in the middle of the bench seat between the control sticks with foot on pilot and copilot outboard rudder pedal. Seat belt was a single lap belt like the tilt a whirl.
