Thanks for all of the replies to my VNE question.  However I, like Ernie, am
confused.

I'm looking for something that is capable of cruise at or around 200mph.  I
understand that
the current recommended powerplants won't provide this speed.  However, what
about the
airframe?  What is maximum speed - - - errr VNE - - - before you enter the
danger zone?

What's the deal here?  Is this just marketing hype???

I'm confused!

Europa's Web site claims "cruise speeds up to 200 mph (174 kts)."
How can one cruise above the VNE?  Is there a plan to increase the VNE?
