Multidimensional upwind residual distribution (RD) schemes have become an appealing alternative to more widespread finite volume and finite element methods (FEM) for solving compressible fluid flows. The RD approach allows to construct nonlinear second order and non-oscillatory methods at the same time. They are routinely used for steady state calculations of the complex flow problems, e.g., 3D turbulent transonic industrial-type simulations [H. Deconinck, K. Sermeus, R.
