Extract

Aspects of numerical simulation of aircraft program flight along a predetermined trajectory are presented. An emphasis is laid on the problem of describing the required trajectory by means of a succession of defined points. A spline function method is used for interpolation and smoothing routines. Some numerical illustrations of aircraft trajectory flight simulation (only planar motion) are demonstrated and discussed.
