The whole issue of crosswind "conditions" for MANUAL take off and landing operations is interesting.Long ago there was a reference in the Boeing manuals for the types that im currently flying in the LIMITATIONS section of the FCOM.However at some stage these Limitations disappeared and were replaced by TAKEOFF and LANDING GUIDELINES, TALPA ARC and non-TALPA ARC.In other words there are no longer hard and fast LIMITATIONS as such but simply GUIDELINES.It is of course entirely up to individual airlines and/or their Regulator to impose Limitations as long as they are equal to or more restrictive than the said GUIDELINES.The issue of GUSTS are not mentioned or even addressed, however it would be good airmanship and common sense to do so.For AUTOLAND operations there are stated LIMITATIONS as has been the case for a long time.Peter.
