It would seem that there has been significant data captured fairly recently on the effects of winds aloft on the darkflight phase of a meteorite's journey. I recall that the winds had shifted the axis of the strewnfield from the track of the bolide in cases like Park Forest. So, the question is "What are the observed extremes of the distance off axis from the retardation point to arrival on the ground?" Are we talking kilometers or possibly 10s of kilometers?
