I was doing the ATPL Feedback database and came across this question:

Q163) Which statement about minimum control speed is correct?
A) VMCA may not be lower than VMCL
B) The nose wheel steering control may used to determine VMCG.
C) Crosswind is taken into account to determine VMCG.
D) VMCA depends on the airport density altitude, and the location of the engine on the aeroplane (aft fuselage or wing).
(mark scheme answer)
->I do agree with D but in my book it also states that VMCG is affected by cross-wind, making VMCG increase when the cross-wind comes from the side of the inoperative engine during the take-off run (C).

Secondly I still have Q93) and the last question from my first post in doubt.
