In this report a single longitudinal tracker is developed for the aircraft for three different flight conditions. The method used is the singular perturbation method applied to fast-sampling, output-feedback digital control. Each flight condition has three command modes: positive pitch pointing, vertical translation and straight climb. A sensitivity study is performed to validate the design and illustrate design parameter influences on system response. A computer-aided-design program, MULTI, is developed to assist in the iterative design process. The program is fully interactive, user-oriented, and provides error protection. The program allows complete design and simulation of three types of control law designs: known-regular plants, known irregular plants, and unknown plants. The report contains a brief but complete summary of each of these control law design methods. A user's manual and a programmer's manual are provided for further development of the program. (Author)
