10 knot tailwind was max at AA unless you were landing in San Jose, Costa Rica at over 3,000 ft. Then you could land with a 15 knot tailwind because circling to land minimums would require a go around because of the clouds not allowing a circle to land. Makes a lot of sense to our management people because of the bottom line. We know they are right because they are only looking out for our safety. Right!
