This thesis deals with a new type of launchers that are known under the name space planes. Due to the alternative mission profile and the strongly varying flight environment as compared with conventional aircraft and conventional launch vehicles, a major field of interest is flight mechanics and the simulation thereof in the design phase of such a vehicle, which is the main topic of the current study. Moreover, it is the intention to develop a generic model which allows for a fast analysis of flight mechanics of space vehicles.
