Somebody once told me there is no max crosswind component listed for the DC-3, you simply look at a chart and fly a faster and faster speed given the wind strength. I like extra speed in a crosswind but on speed on a headwind keeping the power in til touchdown. But thats just me.

Denny, I too loved holding altitude at 100' above when I was getting my instrument rating and my flight instructor would just say "man, if they'd told you to hold 4,100', you'd be perfect. Too bad they didn't."
