A vortex/vortices of 45kt wind has 45kts of wind in all directions as you fly through it. A real ASI would hardly move, takes to long to respond. X-Planes ASI seems to be reading out precise by the microsecond airspeeds. AutoATC Developer

Several factors could contribute insufficient airspeed using a constant rate climb. I have been using both systems but I am now convinced it is better to climb in FLC. Thank you
