boy i would really like to be the one to answer this cos i cant believe i never actually even thought about the "why" in this. Bravo!

hmmm... ok what do u guys think about the fact that perhaps the auto rudder trim function has something to do with this? in the air perhaps with the fact that the rudder will automatically trim for the crosswind to perhaps a certain limit (im guessing 33kts so whatever the aircrafts angle has to be to counteract this and maintain centerline) but on the ground during the take off roll,u dont have this auto rudder trim support and the limit is higher (29kts). but then again... its only 4kts...which makes me doubt my answer as well

even if it has something to do with vmcg or vmca which i doubt cos yeah it would make my toes curl as well if they actually tested it that way, it still is ONLY 4KTS!!! why???

guys...this is one for the french i think
