This classic text analyzes the trajectories of aircraft, missiles, satellites, and spaceships in terms of gravitational forces, aerodynamic forces, and thrust. The treatment's examination of flight in a uniform gravitational field covers general principles of kinematics, dynamics, aerodynamics, and propulsion; quasi-steady and non-steady flight over a flat Earth; and applications to rockets operating in the hypervelocity domain.
