I found this online while searching for something else (as it usually goes) and I think it's on the Heath Parasol at Old Rhinebeck. Probably not great for those go-fast types but pretty neat for low and slow around the patch flying:

It got me thinking, what do you really need for just tooling around? Stall, normal, caution range and Vne; exact numbers are irrelevant in fun flying and really, how correct is the ASI on your average vintage homebuilt?

I like it, it takes carefree flying to another level.
