"Gust's don't matter for crosswind limit" ???
#22
The limitations at my airline are very similar, and have been for as long as I have been here. We don't factor in gust factors as far as a limitation goes, but that's not to say we won't take it into consideration. Bottom line, if you're not comfortable doing it, then don't.

Just tried to land a 200 on a contaminated rwy with
xwind at 17kts G26. Mu's were at 40. Then a 121 carrier reports ba poor. We go missed because we can't land (sop) with ba reports of poor and xwind greater than 10kts. We Held while 7 crews in a row from every airline landed and reported it poor as well. Couldn't believe it. It was an Ils to about 1sm.

So were told in a memo recently issued, from our 9E management, that "Gust's don't matter for cross wind limit."
CRJ-200 X-Wind limit is 27 knots for a wet or dry runway
CRJ-200 X-Wind limit is 15 knots for a contaminated runway
Example:
Runway 36 Dry or Wet (Grooved rwy)
090/27G45....NEW interpretation is "within limits"
090/28.........NEW interpretation is "not within limits"
Runway 36 contaminated with 1 inch snow:
090/15G30....NEW interpretation is "within limits"
090/16.........NEW interpretation is "not within limits"
How unsafe!!!!!

There is no dry runway x wind limit on the CRJ series. ..only company mandated limits. SKYW routinely lands them in +30 (they have NO LIMIT AT ALL on dry runway Xwind) and I suspect everyone else does too.

At Mesaba all our x-wind limitations are more restrictive than the manufacturer, except the 10 knot tailwind limit.
27 dry, 22 wet and 15 slippery. The dry is even further reduced if you have less than 100 hrs on the plane to 20 Ca and 15 Fo. These are hard limitations, not demonstrated.
