Aircraft: Planes(ICRF)

Used to report the selected plane and its velocity in the object's central body ICRF coordinate system. The plane must be defined in the Vector Geometry Tool.

Type: Time-varying data

Availability: Reports | Graphs | Dynamic Displays | Strip Charts

NameDescription
FlightPathXY plane of the FlightPath coordinate system which is a plane passing through the object's center that contains its flight direction and is constrained to be as parallel as possible to the central body surface.
FlightSymmetryPlaneXZ plane of the FlightPath coordinate system which is a plane passing through the object's center that contains its flight direction and its surface normal.
LocalHorizontalXY plane of the Topocentric coordinate system which is a plane passing through the object's center that is parallel to the central body surface and is aligned with it.
