The DAR/ FAA signoff is essentially permission to go flight test for
40 hours to see what the various airspeed limits are, among everything
else. It should make no difference that it's a kit, and the kit mfr
has specified numbers. Maybe your flaps are reflexed a bit. And you
have to determine installation error and instrument accuracy. In the
interest of safety, we should have the right to determine exact stall
speeds. Per the Advisory Circular for homebuilts, (AC 20-27??), the
listing of the required markings/placards further does not mention
ASI.
This doesn't mean one might mark the instrument per Europa during
construction, but only that FAA cannot make you do that.
