Abstract

A new approach is presented for the computation of continuation diagrams. It differs in principle from the usual approach of continuing the equilibrium points by considering one or more of the controls as continuation parameters and with the other controls held fixed. The novel approach addresses the problem of Light dynamics from the pilot point of view by allowing all the controls to be freely determined. At the same time some of the states are so constrained that along the continuation curve a particular pilot trim condition is maintained.
