Ladies, Please: back to aviation.
A/C type irrelevant; limtations. Rwy 26.
1. X wind = all X-wind + 1/2 gust; max 15 for autoland. W/V = 000/12G22. Can you land; do you ask the wind when at 200'agl (CAT 1 DA), does the gust veer to reduce the x-wind gust? Same argument for man' landing with greater numbers.
2. Tailwind. limit is 10kts. W/V 090/8G15. Can you land; ask the wind at 200agl?
Performance planners use 1/2 headwinds and 1.5 tailwinds for landing performance. I am asking about a/c limitations. There is nothing written down; Flt Ops have no idea and give no guidance. It is a grey area in an area of limitations. Do you divert with commercial consequences? Do you be a hero and land? Do you land, slide off the end, lose you licence and get fired? Staggeringly it is impossible to find a definitive answer from the powers that be. It is a safety and commercial issue, yet taken so 'unseriously' by managements.
Advices and opinions? Even better, any hard facts, especially EU ops?
