17 knots is the 'maximum demonstrated crosswind component' for the Malibu.
Thanks. And is there a specific annotation to the effect that this is not to be considered limiting, as I know there is in some POHs?
If the report is incorrect, comparison of the two will make that quite clear.
True, but if I were involved in an incident or accident that was recorded by the AAIB in a way that suggested that I willfully exceeded the limitations of the aircraft, I would want them to set the record straight! And if the AAIB
does believe that this is a
limitation, their misapprehension needs to be corrected.
