BNWA PA 31 limits.

Saw one of BNWA's depart BLK tonight . Couldn't tell if it was the stalwart Piper Navajo G-PMAX, although PA31 G-BYVF was operating for them on Friday, seems like they just draft a different one in when they have a problem! G-OBNW does charter services as it is fitted-out in an executive style! Not very exec here in BLK tonite tho.

It must have been gusting over 50 and well off the slot when they took off and looked a bit scary so God knows what it was like on Fraggle Rock and over the Irish C.

Anyone know the xwind limit for taxi and take off on PA31. . I'm told even Euromanks and Aer arran were diverting and even the seagulls had been blown off the rock as it was gusting 60-70 theyre ? Anyone on Fraggle alive to tell the tale?
