The derivation and evaluation of an automatic flight trajectory synthesis algorithm is described. The algorithm can generate both time-free and time-fixed fuel-optimal cruise trajectories. The algorithm is based on a regularly perturbed optimal control formulation of cruise at constant altitude. Complicating effects such as winds aloft, off nominal ambient temperatures and engine losses are embedded in the dynamic model using a regular perturbation approach. It is shown that by including the weight dynamics in the system formulation, the performance of the algorithm is improved.
