Deez, you had to do an unpowered xwind landing... dang, you da bomb! You are now officially excused from the leg press machine at the gym. Oh, and if you have to use elevator power assist on approach, you're neck deep in a river of $hit and here comes a wave!
ha! too true! to be totally accurate the crosswind component was in the mid twenties.

Isn't the limit 12Kts for an unpowered rudder?

Nope. 12knts limit is for a restricted rudder. there is no limit on an unpowered rudder. other than the ac limit.

Gee, at $4 a bag, they must be making good money. Flying Allegiant is an experience. $2 for a can of soda. $11 for an advance seat assignment. $4 to check a bag in advance, $8 if you check it day of flight. Guy in the row in front of me got a beer and a bag of peanuts - no change back from his $10. My favorite was the souvenir menu, which included a beach towel "that works great as a blanket on the plane, too" (only $15!)

Of course, I paid $66 total for a one way ticket to Orlando that would have cost 6-7 times that on the big guys.
