This book unifies all aspects of flight dynamics for the efficient development of aerospace vehicle simulations. Now in its second edition, its purpose is still to provide the reader with a complete set of tools to build, program, and execute simulations. Unlike other books, it uses tensors for modeling flight dynamics in a form invariant under coordinate transformations. For implementation, the tensors are converted into matrices, resulting in compact computer code. The reader can pick FORTRAN templates of missiles, aircraft, or hypersonic vehicles from the complimentary CADAC4 software to jump-start a particular application, and plot the results with CADAC Studio. It is the only textbook that combines the theory of modeling with hands-on examples of three-, five-, and six-DoF simulations. This new and enlarged edition also serves as the anchor for a self-tutoring, three-part course of aerospace simulations in C++, available from AIAA. Amply illustrated with 318 figures and 44 examples, the text can be used for advanced undergraduate and graduate instructions or for self study. Seventy-eight problems and nine projects further develop the material. The second edition contains two new appendices. The original Appendix C, which reviewed state-of-the-art FORTRAN simulations, has been replaced by the description in three self-study CD-ROMs of aerospace simulations in C++. These CD-ROMs broaden the applications of this book, moving from simple three-degrees-of-freedom cruise missiles to high fidelity missiles, aircraft, and hypersonic vehicles. The new Appendix D sets forth the theoretical foundation of tensor flight dynamics, and it contains proofs of the rotational time derivative and the Euler transformation.
