Corner speed is that IAS that you can pull like a randy schoolboy, to the buffet, and reach your maximum allowed G.

Fly faster, pull to the buffet, and you will over-G.
Fly slower, pull to the buffet, and the bad guy will gain angles.

Corner speed equals the Square root of the maximum G multiplied by the 1G straight and Level stall speed for that weight or something.....
