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: the wind would probably be blowing from west to east , in the first second or so the direction of the aircraft would be north 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: if the force remained perpendicular to the direction of motion, the airplane will probably follow a path that is northeast at an angle with north
