It is very likely that few people who labor in any scientific discipline are unaware of the contributions of advanced navigation, guidance, and control (NGC) theory to aerospace-related programs. It is, however, equally unlikely that many are aware of the dramatic impact of this field on such diverse areas as medicine, industrial manufacturing, energy management, and chemical engineering. While its broad range of applications would at first appear to indicate that advanced NGC theory is enjoying an immense popularity in scientific and academic settings in general, this unfortunately turns out not to be the case. It is felt by many experts that many of those in the aerospace field in particular either are content to rest on the laurels surrounding the success of NGC theory developed in the 1950's and 1960's or have become so conservative in their design philosophies as to be unduly apprehensive about using advanced NGC theory. The latter appears to be especially true in the area of aviation.
