Have to agree White Knight
Had several max wind landings in AKL on the 345, looks a little hairy lining up on the edge lights. I cheat a little and begin the de-crab just prior to the flare with slower rudder inputs, needs a little more lateral attention but works well and the aircraft is in the level attitude on touchdown.
Either way immediatly prior to or in the flare hasn't made a huge difference and neither have strong gusts during the flare, just need to be ready with control inputs if needed.
This isn't rocket science, what works for one may type not necesarily work for another.
Stay safe
