The POH under limitations list two speeds which are unusual in my experience. The first is Maximum Direct Crosswind Component, 11 KIAS and Maximum Wind Limitation, 30 KAIS.
This is the first aircraft I have flown with a maximum wind limitation and all the other aircraft have had a maximum demonstrated cross wind speed (which is not a limitation).
So I am taking these two speeds as limitations. Is that correct? Also what is the reason that they are limitations? Is it because of the light weight of the aircraft? Is it because of the certification standards?
Thanks in advance for the information.
