The dimensionless equations of motion for hypersonic flight in the upper layer of the atmosphere are presented. The necessary conditions for the Chebyshev minimax problems are provided. Some important properties concerning the peak heating rate, the peak dynamic pressure and the peak altitude drop for a skip trajectory are discussed. As application of the theory, the problem of minimizing the peak altitude drop is solved. The numerical results support the theory that the nearly-grazing trajectory is useful in reducing the peak heating rate and the peak dynamic pressure.
