Being a bit thick, but not intentionally, how does this relate to " cross wind limits and definitions ?"
When the words, maximum demonstrated crosswind velocityappear in the Flight Manual, they are there to satisfy the certification requirements I quoted. They are not intended to be limits.

Is there a legal limitation or not ?
If a limit appears in the Limitations section of the Flight Manual, yes. If none does, no. I cannot speak for all aircraft, but I can say that I've seen plenty of Flight Manuals where no limitation exists. Ops Manual limitations may also exist, company by company.

And thanks, wotsyors, as always I'll do a full risk assessment before showering...
