This volume -- part of a set of three -- includes 11 papers covering: (1) Fundamentals -- Optimal trajectories, and Non-linear models of aircraft; (2) Flight in critical atmospheric conditions -- Genesis of wind and influence on airplane trajectories, Flight control in windshear, and Flight simulation; and (3) Impact of new on-board technologies on aircraft operation -- Flight management in air transport, and Crew/automation interface. Keywords: Aircraft trajectories models; Effect of wind variation; Flight management computer system; Flight simulation; Guidance laws; Flight paths.

This volume is composed of a short introduction, a book of abstracts of the 39 papers included in the overall work, an extensive bibliography which incorporates in particular, most of the references cited by the 56 authors and co-authors, and a list of contributors ordered by countries alphabetically. Both the bibliography and the list of contributors are each completed by an adequate index.
