Jim, you don't have to do the physics for a 1 g roll. click on
stanford.edu/~sigman/one_g_roll.html for a really neat analysis.
Page down toward the end of sigman's article to see the actual flight
paths that it takes. It's a neat read.
Oh, for the nonbelievers in Newton and vector analysis and such (Mx
whatever comes to mind) don't bother.
It's http://www.stanford.edu/~siegman/one_g_roll.html
