Noted on a different thread is a cross wind limitation of 17 kts. Can anyone give an explanation of why the limit is so low? It does sound restrictive, certainly for locations away from the tropics.

It seems odd given the aircrafts great power margins. Agusta products are normally quite good in this are as well. I seem to recall flying sideways in an A109E at 50 knots - with Double Bogey at the controls
