Fcom is not speaking of gusting for tail wind limit.
Actual situation, 7 gust 12kt tailwind.
Are we allowed to take off?
thanks for the reply
Ciao,
from a limitations and performance point of view yes; the gust is considered only for crosswind components. For head/tail winds the reported steady wind components is what affects You.
If You are using flysmart, try running some computations with varying tailwind gusts and see the effects. You are legal in you scenario.
