.. but he who doesn't consider the effect of crosswind for a min speed schedule takeoff trusts in the little faeries down at the end of the garden path, methinks ...

The significance of the nil wind is solely line in the sand stuff .. for the very great majority of circumstances, it is not at all critical or even significant .. but beware of strong crosswinds and low weight min speed schedules .. the "real" Vmcg can be a significant number of knots above the certification animal.
