Engine Stall
What are the Combination Crosswind / Tailwind limits?
At 35 kt Xwind any Twind.
At 15 kt Twind, Xwind > 30 kt
T.O PERF displays the following error message: “Risk of engine
pumping with this combination of Crosswind and Tailwind. Takeoff not allowed on QFU: ***”.
QFU = Runway Heading
Flight crew cannot run the computation. Combo Xwind/Twind outside limits.
