Xwind has no affect on Vmcg.
Yes it does.
Vmcg testing: xwind of 7kts from the worse direction is considered
Please quote the "present day" regulation showing this is the case.
So the lowest V1 is always higher to cater for the max x-wind component allowed for the aircraft.
Not correct.
You forgot about balanced V1.
Good Night.....will expand on these points when sober...
