"A linear aircraft model for a rigid aircraft of constant mass flying over a FLAT, NONROTATING earth is derived and defined. The derivation makes no assumptions of reference trajectory or vehicle symmetry. The linear system equations are derived and evaluated along a general trajectory and include both aircraft dynamics and observation variables. "

Why would an aircraft fly over a flat, nonrotating earth??? Well, cuz it is FLAT and NONROTATING?!
I've attached 2 links of the Document, one containing 108 pages and one 102, one from NASA Technical Report Server and the other from the official site.
