Jimgriff,
Maybe I'm being a bit dull here but ......
Surely left to its own devices doesn't a parachute just go with the wind, therefore all basic chutes land downwind. There are vents at the back of a standard ejection seat chute to make it go forwards so that a concious participant can steer into wind. Crosswind landings therefore only come when someone has tried to mess with the laws of nature
I was in no state to try and steer anything during either of my descents, landed like your sack of spuds and then some!!
Any other ejectees like to offer their experiences?
