Wayne:
I have a 1973 337G. The POH says "with average pilot technique, the airplane can be safely landed in direct crosswinds of 20 knots". It also says to use full flaps and goes on to say that the maximum crosswind is more a function of pilot proficiency than airplane limitations. Suggests to me that an experienced pilot can land with well over 20 knots.
I find the "pilot proficiency" statement accurate, having once taken the yoke away from a CFI who was meandering all over the place in his hugely unsuccesful attempt to land my 1969 337D in heavy crosswinds in ABI.
