the sideslip technique is to be removed form the FCTM and QRH limitations as Boeing now state " Crab" is the safer method and as it affords a greater XWC, on all boeings, this is to become the normal method in training.
Ex: 777 XWC limit DRY RW Crab 45 KTS, Sideslip 31 kts (772), 35KTS (773) ,
Thanks for the heads up, I'm now really looking forward to having a go at 45 across...
