[GURPS Spaceships] Possible errata

On page 35 Air Performance:

Second paragraph says (if I read it correctly) if your acceleration doesn't match a line in the Air Performance Table multiply square root of acceleration in G with 2500 to get speed in mph, this seems fine.

First paragraph after the table says "For half-G increments round up but multiply by 0,7 ". Problem is this gives less speed than if you did round down, IE 1,5G accel gives less top speed than 1G using this formula.
