Yes Boeing update their training manuals....based on errors and ommisions and online operational incidents, accidents and experiances.
So do Airbus.....
All this talk about how badly pilots are trained to do crosswind takeoffs on a particular type....reminds me of the other question about the amount of aileron to be used on a max manual xwind landing...for a good guide of how much or little aileron should be used....see it done in the simulator on a maz xwind autoland.
I found I soon learnt about keeping on the centre line in xwinds and steering if required with aileron drag and useing rudder on the C46 and DC3.
Best aircraft in a huge crosswind for me was the L100 tristar...there you go 411A!! Argue with that statement.I miss her too.
