I agree with oldebloke wind itīs something we have plenty here in Iceland.When landing in such extreme conditions we usually fly manualy and add all the gust and half of the wind but no more than 20 kts to Vref,
also we might select flaps 25 instead of flaps 30 due to flap load relief being activated if flaps 30 spd is exceeded.Positive touch down and nose gear as soon as possible is encouraged always.If LVP are in use max HW comp of 20 kts for autoland CatII/III.
