It is shown how, by simple artifact, condition may be found for each case by whose satisfaction entire trajectory furnishes not only stationary path, but actually true local minimum; two cases presented are sounding rocket and A.R.HIBBS' problem of optimum horizontal flight. (See Engineering Index 1952 p 649, under Missiles).
