Caution: Thread Creep
BTW, in the USAF (C-5) we calculated Vmcg and accounted for crosswind, about 1kt increase per knot of crosswind. Why does it seem to me that the FAA does not do so? And the CAA uses a nominal 7 knot crosswind! Crosswind has a significant effect on Vmcg
On the Global Express, Vmcg is 88 knots and no correction for crosswind. At light weights, V1 is based on Vmcg and with a strong crosswind might, in fact, have a V1 less than Vmcg--NOT GOOD!
