If an airplane is flying north, from what direction would the wind be blowing to most effectively cause the aircraft to veer toward the east?

• What sort of path would it follow for the first second or so?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

speed from the north would make it head to the east

• If the wind keeps shifting so as to remain perpendicular to the direction of motion what path will the airplane follow?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

a circle clockwise because it would be moving to the right
