Well, I’ve heard it said that there are three words in English that end with “gry”…
April Fools. Actually, this is a mathematics/aerial navigation question.
I’m building an early-model ICBM on a flight simulator (The A9/A10, to be exact. You may have seen it in a back issue of “Creepy Luftwaffe Prototypes Weekly”), and I’m trying to figure out the necessary Angle of Attack to maintain during various stages of flight. I was lucky enough to find a mission profile for the a9/a10 that gives the altitude over distance traveled that were calculated for this design, but I’d like to find out if I can to translate that into “in cockpit” instructions-i.e. “Point the nose 45? down until you reach 150,000 feet, then level off to 10? down”-before an actual flight.
Well, thanks for your time and patience,
