A B S T R A C T Method and apparatus for commanding an optimal flight path for an aircraft encountering a windshear condition. An airspeed rate signal equal in magnitude and opposite in sense to the windshear is applied to derive a variable rate of change of airspeed command for application to a flight director indicator. Limits are placed on the derived command such that the minimum allowable speed command is stick shaker speed and the maximum the nominal speed in the absence of the windshear. The resultant command signal represents a true airspeed rate that yields an optimal flight path for the aircraft to exit the windshear condition.
