Abstract
A point mass, three-degree of freedom model is presented as a basic development tool for PC based simulation models. The model has been used in the development of guidance algorithms as well as in other applications such as performance management systems to compute optimal speeds. Its limitations and advantages are discussed with regard to the windshear environment. A method for simulating a simple autopilot is explained in detail and applied in the analysis of different guidance laws
