Crosswind Landings - Sideslip or Crab??

Hi All,

I tend to fly a crabbed approach in crosswind conditions all the way down final until its time to flare which I then kick it straight and then apply aileron in the correct direction.

1/2 the people in my company use the sideslip approach.

Just wondering what other people out there are using and teaching and why they are choosing one method over another.

Many thanks in advance to those who reply.....
