LSA speed limit - does it really apply only at the sea level?

BTW, rumors that Art was mongering reminded me that GX did indeed have an issue with uneven tire wear, although not flat-spotting. Apparently the shape of the cowl makes many renters to land in a slight right crab, so left tire gets worn out first. A simple workaround is to swap tires from side to side midway. Nonetheless it takes some attention to force people to seek centerline by looking at something other than cowling.

I think that's true in the Jabiru LSA, as well. It took me awhile to acquire the correct sight picture on it. We reverse the tires periodically.

My Jabiru J230 does 120 knots true @2850 rpm up to 12000 +/- dependong on temp. Fuel burn is 5.8 gph.
