DFC,

Thank you for the insults in your previous posts. I see that you're now a test pilot as well as having the many other areas of expertise to which you have referred over the years : what a fantastic career you must be having.

As to myself, when I'm not pretending to be a test pilot, or acting as an idiot, or making myself the subject of Avweb humour, I'm just a guy with many hours on type who can read ... hey - let's see if you can too !

Here's a verbatim quotation from my POH ...

"Demonstrated Crosswind Velocity is the velocity of the cross-wind component for which adequate control of the airplane during takeoff and landing was actually demonstrated during certification tests. The value shown is not considered to be limiting." (my emphasis).

Good luck with the test pilot phase of your long and oh-so-varied career ...

FF
