Flybywire it should be in the flight manual/POH but normaly you should cross the hedge at 1.3 Vs add about 5kt for the aproach on a good day and a little more to take account of gusty conditions but dont go too fast as this will lead to PIO just before touch down ,this seems to be the enemy of all the small cessnas and the result is much overtime in the engineering department.
