Light Aircraft
Aircraft Diamond DV20 Katana
Company Flugsportverein Stockerau
Name Elizabeth Mann & Thomas Zugcic
Date 05 Feb 2007
Groundspeed 183 kts
Notes On a training flight from Stockerau to Wels we had strong headwind and groundspeed of 35 knots for a period so we have been well prepared for pretty high groundspeed on our way back. As the groundspeed then rose beyond 170 knots at 3500 feet in the area of St. Pölten we pushed everything forward to go for 180. As far as I know Elizabeth therewith is the fastest student pilot ever on our Katana fleet.
