Keywords: nonlinear model matching, flight control, lift/cruise fan aircraft

Up to the present various flight control systems have been proposed for linear aircraft motion on some equilibrium point such as steady flight, but very little has been done for nonlinear one on dynamic maneuver. To solve the problems, we propose a nonlinear model matching method. This method will give a hint to solve other complicated nonlinear control problems.
