At least, I did so more times than I can count and no one ever complained.
- I feel sorry for you - you have obviously been dealt a really rough lot of landing weathers.
1) Go around (due to not being at the Boeing recommended flap setting for tailwind landings)?
2) Land with a flap setting that is not recommended for tailwind?
- i have never been fortunate enough to have this recommendation in any of my manuals. Can you tell me where you have it? FCTM?OPS manual? You would need to beware the 'Texas Tailwind', though.................

I am also impressed with your ability to check the LDR with a 10kt tailwind from just 500'. Terrific!
