In the context of aircraft navigation and aerodynamics, the term "F-plane" refers to a specific type of reference plane used in flight dynamics and control theory. It is typically part of the formulation of aircraft equations of motion. The F-plane is aligned with the flight path of the aircraft and is used to analyze how the aircraft responds to various forces and moments during flight.
