Actually from Airbus document on sharklets the only speed affected by them is Vmcg by 1KT on CFM. There are some other limitations but not on speed. Everything else remains same. I was trying to work backwards. Since Vmca is 1.2 or some multiple of Vs1g so apparently Vs1g is not affected and Vls is also a derivative of Vs1g. Or simply since Vs1g is not affected all speeds remain same. particular reference to Vmca was not necessary.
