Although the response would be strongly dependent on the selected flap, or that reduced by on step for the G/A (thinking here 2 -> 1+F), it is a valid point 194 kt IAS is still plenty for the airfoils to perform as designed. Good insight.
Has it been established what flaps they had selected for the first approach? At least some, otherwise the overspeed clacker would not be there.
