Nick, the page you referred shows data for VRS on the V22 occurring between 30 and 42 KIAS.

I completely agree with the written test creators being students only of "pop-aerodynamics" courses. I believe this is the greatest hurdle in explaining many things helicopter. The introduction and conclusion of those courses should include a caveat explaining that the discussion is meant to be simple not truthful.
