Using a trajectory with constant ground speed (x) and a parabolic altitude profile (y) the simulated reduced gravity would continue to point to the center of the Earth, rather than be perpendicular to the floor. Trying to get the simulated gravity to be floor-normal makes the math problem much more interesting! And so I've just asked Could an aircraft ever simulate Martian gravity perpendicular to the aircraft's floor? | |

Converted rampant code block abuse into MathJax, hopefully without messing up any equations, and removed fluff and spelling errors
