FLC RUNS TO THE EDGE OF RWY 07 AT EDI WHILE ATTEMPTING A 3-ENG FERRY TKOF IN A XWIND. RWY EDGE LIGHTS WERE BROKEN (4). NO DAMAGE TO ACFT.

Narrative

MY CREW (CAPT; FO; FE) WERE SCHEDULED TO DO AN APPROVED 3-ENG MAINT FERRY FROM EDINBURGH; SCOTLAND; TO CAMBRIDGE; ENGLAND. ALL APPROPRIATE PROCS WERE BRIEFED; RELATING TO THE 3-ENG TKOF; PRIOR TO ENG START. ENG START AND TAXI WERE ALL NORMAL. WX WAS VMC; RWY WAS DRY. RWY FOR TKOF WAS RWY 07; WINDS CALLED AT 360 DEGS; 10 KTS; TEMP 7 DEGS C. WHILE HOLDING FOR TKOF; A LNDG ACFT WAS GIVEN WINDS OF 350 DEGS 12 KTS. OUR 3-ENG FERRY WAS WITH #1 ENG FEATHERED. WHEN CLRED FOR TKOF THE REQUIRED ENG RUN-UP PRIOR TO BRAKE REVERSE WAS WITHIN NORMAL LIMITS; WINDS 360 DEGS 10 KTS. INITIAL TKOF ROLL WAS NORMAL UP TO APPROX 80-85 KTS AT WHICH POINT THE NOSE OF THE ACFT WX- VANED INTO THE WIND; APPARENTLY AS A RESULT OF PWR BEING ADDED ON THE #4 ENG AND A 70 DEG L XWIND OF APPROX 10 KTS. REJECT WAS INITIATED WITH FULL BRAKING; FULL R RUDDER; FULL REVERSE ON #2 AND #3; #4 AS ABLE AND NOSEWHEEL STEERING. THE ACFT CROSSED THE L RWY EDGE STRIPE BUT STAYED ON HARD SURFACE. RWY 04 EDGE LIGHTS WERE HIT; WE FOUND OUT LATER. ACFT STRAIGHTENED OUT AS IT SLOWED DOWN. WE TAXIED BACK TO PARKING FOR AN ACFT INSPECTION; PRIMARILY TIRES AND LNDG GEAR. NO DAMAGE NOTED. OUR MANUALS DO NOT INDICATE A XWIND LIMIT FOR TKOF; EITHER FOR NORMAL 4-ENG OR FOR 3-ENG TKOF. THE CREW WAS RESTED. ALL PROCS PROPERLY BRIEFED AND FOLLOWED. I BELIEVE IN THIS INSTANCE A COMBINATION OF WIND AND PWR EXCEEDED THE CTL SURFACE CAPABILITIES OF THE ACFT.
