There are absolutely no numbers published for Bombardier planes, we were told to get back to the engineers with our observations on the AOA presentation. OTOH, the Citations, from Day One, had the standard military chevron and donut display in the glare shield.

I wonder though if they used 'green' for slow and 'red' for fast as Naval Aviation does or if the civilian world considers 'red' as near stall. Looking at the other video posted of the amphib, that display used red as the dangerously slow region color of warning.
