What is the maximum demonstrated crosswind component for the CRJ 900?

The maximum demonstrated crosswind component for the CRJ 900 is 30 knots. This value represents the maximum wind speed from the side that the aircraft has been tested and can take off or land safely under standard operating conditions. It is important for flight crews to understand this limitation, as it provides guidance on the aircraft's performance and handling capabilities in crosswind situations. Exceeding this limit can compromise safety, as the aircraft may not be able to maintain control during landing or takeoff, which could lead to accidents. Adhering to this demonstrated limit helps ensure the safe operation of the aircraft in various weather conditions.
