The Vulcan had a fairly low crosswind limit of 20 kts, with or without chute, mainly due to the low wing tip clearance in the flare when anything over 3.5 deg of roll could result in contact. Consequently the TBC was not streamed until the nose wheel had been lowered.
There were other good reasons for this as well. But, as usual, it didn't apply to senior officers. On a display, one squadron commander selected stream on short finals. The resulting gyrations were unusual to say the least and the heavy landing check took some considerable time to complete. i don't believe he did it again.
