The factory's Vne recommendation is based on the limits of professional flight testing for flutter, not structural.

  This article was on the Van's website.  It would be great if Velocity had V-N graphs like this for the different models.but then, maybe they do.  I'm always the last to know.

  It would be interesting to know what the Velo Vne is based on; flutter or structural strength?  Or is it just a number, not based on anything particularly, but suspected to be ultra conservative?
