Demonstrated crosswind performance
The JS-3 has very good crosswind handling characteristics due to its
polyhedral wing shape allowing high bank angles during touchdown.
The maximum demonstrated crosswind components are:
•
During aerotow:
25 km/h (14 kts)
•
During winch launch:
25 km/h (14 kts)
•
During landing:
30 km/h
(16 kts)
NOTE:
See Section 4 on Approach and Landing for more
information on landing in crosswinds.
