What are the wind limits for controllability?
30kts in any direction, 50kts from the front 30° sector
What are the ‘avoid’ relative wind directions?
Wind (>25 kt) from the left (270 +/- 10°) may require increased control activity and/or large pedal inputs to maintain aircraft heading.
Wind (20 kt up to 30 kt) from the front right (045 +/- 20°) may cause irregular lateral shuddering.
