Spooky, Re “ … what airplanes use groundspeed as a component of AT operations?” #259
IIRC, in addition to the Airbus described above, the Avro RJ uses something similar. During autoland operations the overall autopilot/throttle system adjusts the intended point of touchdown according wind speed; this minimises the longitudinal dispersion of the landings.
Perhaps it is of some significance that the Avro RJ auto flight system consists of half of the MD 11 system hardware; however, the algorithms are based on the MD 80, tuned for the higher lift / slower speed RJ.
