For fixed-wing aircraft longitudinal motions, it is often desirable to use the stability-frame instead of the body-fixed frame, as shown in the figure, where Vr = √²+w² is the true air speed, which is the magnitude of the body-frame velocity under no wind condition, and a = tan-¹. Note that u Vtcosa, w = Vtsina.
