 HISTORY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7/1/99   TP   Created
 
 
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The purpose of this class is to take a set of initial conditions and provide
a kinematically consistent set of body axis velocity components, euler
angles, and altitude.  This class does not attempt to trim the model i.e.
the sim will most likely start in a very dynamic state (unless, of course,
you have chosen your IC's wisely) even after setting it up with this class.
