Xwind

[Jim Rainer]

I have a 1976 337G normallly aspirated. The book says the "maximum demonstrated crosswind velocity" is 12 knots. This is not a limiting factor - just what they had when they did the original flight tests. This velocity is grossly understated as the 337 can take way more than a 12 knot crosswind component! This is true even in a "turbulent, rolling wind" situation caused by buildings, trees or terrain.

This information is found in my POH in Section 4 "Normal Procedures" on the page in the front of the section called "Speeds for Normal Operation." Took a minute to find it.

Hope that helps.
