My apologies GrazingIncidence, I didn't mean to flame you.....its just that there are sooo many armchair experts/spotters on here that post uninformed drivel..it needs a bit of factual information thrown in now and then
I find bubbers44 comments absolutely spot on, where I work our 757 X-wind limitation is 40 knots..(my own as an F/O is 26 kts) and I can attest to it.
The 757 perfectly controllable in a 35 kt gusty X-wind...which I had to deal with on a recent line check
