Default Re: Which speed keeps ATC happy?

ATC will always talk to pilots with regard to indicated speed, not groud speed. Same with headings versus ground track. Fly the headings and indicated speeds that they give you and let them worry about correction for the winds. They're (usually) pretty good at it.
