Low speed buffet quick rule of thumb
I'm flying an EFIS 737 wo speed tape. How does one calculate the low speed buffet onset speed Up at altitude? (Assuming calm conditions)

I have heard some pilots use the vref40 speed plus a fudge factor... Is that a safe estimate? and if so, what should that fudge factor be?

Thanks in advance.
