FLIGHT
Flight is the process by which an object moves, through an atmosphere
(especially the air) or beyond it (as in the case of spaceflight), by
generating aerodynamic lift, propulsive thrust, aerostatically using
buoyancy, or by ballistic movement, without direct support from any
surface.
Many things fly, from natural aviators such as birds, bats and insects
to human inventions such as missiles, aircraft such as airplanes,
helicopters and balloons, to rockets such as spacecraft.
The engineering aspects of flight are studied in aerospace engineering
which is subdivided into aeronautics, the study of vehicles that travel
through the air, and astronautics, the study of vehicles that travel
through space, and in ballistics, the study of the flight of projectiles.

FLIGHT DYNAMICS
FIXED-WING AIRCRAFT
Flight dynamics is the science of air vehicle orientation and control
in three dimensions. The three critical flight dynamics parameters are
the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle's center
of mass, known as pitch, roll and yaw (quite different from their use
as Tait-Bryan angles).
Aerospace engineers develop control systems for a vehicle's orientation
(attitude) about its center of mass. The control systems include actuators,
which exert forces in various directions, and generate rotational forces
or moments about the aerodynamic center of the aircraft, and thus rotate
the aircraft in pitch, roll, or yaw. For example, a pitching moment is a
vertical force applied at a distance forward or aft from the aerodynamic
center of the aircraft, causing the aircraft to pitch up or down.
