I've flown planes from a cessnas, piper, BE400, T-37, C-5, C-17, B737, and 757/767. A 10 knots tailwind has always been a limit of some sort. Don't let some folks here talk down to you. You asked a very realistic question. Also, big planes don't use "charts" for takeoff and landing data.

Also something to think about...if the weather is truly at mins (say 200 and 1/2) the chance the wind is blowing more than 10 knots is small. Typically when weather is that low winds are bill.

I hope this helps. Feel free to PM me.
