You will not find this published as approved data anywhere. Early aircraft didn't even have Maximum Demonstrated Crosswind Component published. Those that do, it's exactly that. Maximun demonstrated. It is not intended to be a limit for either the airframe or the pilot. It's just greatest componnent encountered during the certification testing. I understand that there is a limit above which it must be tested, related to a percentage of stall speed, but that does not represent an upper limit, rather a lower limit. Tell that to your instructor! If he doesn't praise you for your intelligence, challenge him to show you in print the max. crosswind component his (fill his favorite trainer here) will handle.
