The Operating Limitations is not a booklet.

The Op Lims is part of the Airworthiness Certificate and each is worthless without the other!
The Operating Limitations doc is issued by the DAR and can not be modified by the holder of the airworthiness certificate. It is worded according to the strict guidelines the DAR must follow. If info about V-speeds is included in an Ops Lims, that info is to be written not on the Ops Lims doc, but included in the very specifically worded endorsement entered in the aircraft logs at the end of Phase One testing.
