I knew they were rated for 60kts but I'd never try it that fast in a 747. I think on a light landing I took one in the high 40's though, not sure. The things roll around a fair bit with lateral load on them and there's not a lot of pod clearance on the inner engines with more than about 5deg of roll with the struts compressed.
