Please do share any designs you know of that have Vcmin below 38 √ W/S. That would be a very interesting list. I have not managed to find any yet besides the later Cherokees.
Don't get me started on design vs operational Va... now that is a proper mess.
Sorry, I'm not qualified enough to comment on the actual question here but I was wondering about the term MAUW. I know what it stands for but is that, or was that, the official term in your part of the world? I believe the US still use weights such as MTOW and in Europe we use masses such as MTOM but the term max all up weight just seems so unscientific to me if that makes sense.
