Abstract

A system particularly adapted for guiding aircraft through wind shear conditions includes: a thrust command control (10) for maintaining airspeed and groundspeed within a defined range; a detection system (12) for detecting and annunciating the presence of moderate and severe wind shear; and a pitch command system (14) which provides pitch command signals for optimum climb out from a wind shear condition.
