A constant crosswind is a component of velocity, not acceleration, so again
it is physically impossible for you to perceive it directly. You have to
look out the window or whatever.

Actually, the crosswind is a force but it is counter balanced by drag
and the control surfaces of the airplane. If the pilot didn't resist
the cross wind, the plane would drift with the wind and achieve some
terminal velocity limited by drag and the wind velocity itself.
