The scientific Edition issue is presenting the researches on advanced  trends in domain of aerospace-aviation systems; the conceptual examinations, meditations; author’s investigations and novel proposals on actual problems; the analytical-information papers. Our authors are professionals-specialists, theorists and designers, developing the long-term aviation-aerospace systems.

Yu.S.Solomonov, well-known professional in area of the designing solid propellant missiles (Head, General Designer, Moscow Institute of Heat Technology, Russia), presents the summary of long term researches on problems of working out Space Launch vehicles.

M.E.Penati, M.Zanzi, the specialists in the area of the control engineering systems (Bologna University, Italy), are presenting the interesting developments on methods of normalized diagrams for the problems of standard regulators synthesis, for flight control systems.

A.A.Kalmykov, O.E.Polyntsev, Ye.I.Somov, the specialists in domain of flight dynamics, theory and control systems of spacecrafts, designing flying vehicles (ISDCT of RAS, Russia), are discussing the modelling and analysis problems of autogyro dynamics, presenting new results of flight simulation.

A.P.Buravlyov, B.Ye.Landau, S.L.Levin, S.G.Romanenko, the specialists of broad profile in domain of gyroscopic systems (CSRI “Electropribor”, Russia),- with the statements and solutions on important problems of the working out precision gyroscopic devices.

In information Section of Issue it is presented:

A.K.Medvedeva, Scientific Specialist (IIET of RAS), gives the extended analytic review about XXVI-th Scientific Conference on Astronautics (Russia, 2002).

L.N.Lysenko, V.S.Tupolev, high level specialists in area of ballistic, of spacecraft dynamic and control (N.E.Bauman MSTU, Russia), - with scientific-information summary, analysis and meditations on important problems in areas of ballistic-navigation support, navigation and robotic systems of rockets and space vehicles, discussed within the framework of invited Session (Scientific Conference on Astronautics, Moscow’02).

V.V. Chugunkov, professional-specialist in domain of rocket complex ground facilities (N.E.Bauman MSTU, Russia), presents the information – summarizing material, concerning an analysis of advanced trends, on results of invited Session (Scientific Conference on Astronautics, Moscow’02).

These scientific and information papers, published in Issue, that have a bit discussion, maybe disputable character, are the Summaries of thorough investigations, with revealing long-term and actual problems. The main aim is here to attract the attention of State Level Leaders, Head-Managers of professional Companies, Scientists-Designers in area of aviation and aerospace Science and Technology to the actual advanced trends.
