Ive had zero kts GS in the cruise a few times when punting into a strong head wind.

Best effort was -17 kts GS during a full flap stalling exercise into a headwind of 78kts. During the stall we went backwards 4nm.

Lasting a bit under 15 minutes or so, that's a pretty slow stall.

Best I've seen 219K @3000 AGL in a C210 normally aspirated near YPKG. Picked up a whip off a dying cyclone in the area. Told Mrs RA I wanted a plane that could do that all the time. She didn't say anything. Still hasn't. Is that a yes?
Cheers RA
