Conventional aeronautical stability and control usage is extended into the aerospace flight regime with particular reference to the definition of operating points and coordinate systems. Implied and studied in this extension are the basic particle-dynamic equations of motion, magnitudes of possible external forces, and the flight regimes of fundamental interest. Simplified solutions of the particle-dynamic equations of motion are obtained, and certain low-frequency modes common to both particle and rigid-body motion are explored.
