Derivation and Definition of Linear Aircraft Model

This report documents the derivation and definition of a linear aircraft model for a rigid aircraft of constant mass flying over a flat ,non rotating earth.the derivation makes no assumptions of reference trajectory or vehicle symmetry. the linear system equations are derived and evaluated along trajectory and include both aircraft dynamics and observation variables.
