On A320 it does. GS and TAS.

They were 3 pilots. None of them had this simple idea to read the ground speed. Damn, the wind would be at max 75kts (may be more we don't really care).

Open the window and evalute the wind !
No, just read the ground speed.

You're at FL300, sustain as much you can 400 kts GS
You're closer of FL200, aim 350 kts GS.

Automatic pilots makes intelligent people too stupid when deconnected.

And please indicate air incidence should be considered main indicators.
