Bula, I’m not sure on the limitations for that particular aircraft but it was pretty silly in my opinion when there is a safer option.

When the tower asked us what we needed the wind to be for take off they subsequently changed their read out even though the wind sock doesn’t lie.

All I am saying is that when you have had a few bingles it might be advisable to go with the conservative options... take for example the airlines that are last to stop and first to fly after the number of volcanic eruptions, do they have better information? Or do they just have a higher risk tolerance? I don’t know the answer but the numbers don’t lie.
