Wind limits - small single engine aircraft

Thanks for all the insights.

I flew today rather than yesterday, and it was lovely and smooth
(despite an AIRMET for moderate turbulence), with low winds. My pax,
both of whom were a little nervous, loved it, especially the perfect
greaser at the end.

My lesson learned? You may as well fly in good conditions if you have
the choice, especially with first-time pax.

I have never looked it up, but my first instructor asserted that it was
the
amount of crosswind in which it was demonstrated that the (tricycle gear)
aircraft would safely complete a landing without any crosswind correction
being applied.
