front wheel landings ???

Are front wheel landings more favourable than rear wheel landings ? When you see the likes of ramp to ramp jumpers and the rear wheel landings they make when it all goes wrong they are sprung out of there seat and catapulted forward and because the bike has slowed they actually are going faster with the forward momentum resulting in being in front of the crashing bike. In a front wheel landing as long as the rider is not positioned too far forward they seem to ride out better, what's anyone's view on this ?
