I did pass on the turb <200' after landing.

As for wind checks, fine up to about 200' then as long as the last one is in limits no more

Can't remember exactly but our wind read outs work until touchdown at least.

They are inhibited <80kts on take off.

On ths subject of x winds, I ahve always been a little confused.

Our Flying manual (757/767) states we can use either technique, or a combination of the two.

Now, don't all x-wind landings use a combination of the two in the end?

I crab in and then feed cross rudder and aileron in in the latter stages, but you will ALWAYS land cross controlled with aileron into wind, or the wing will rise even in a modest x-wind.

the difference really is at which point on the approach you cross the controls.
