% Computes landing distance.
Set cL to zero eliminate lift. muR is generally 0.4 for braking.
t is for thrust reversing.
Type LandingDistance for a demo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
sL = LandingDistance( m, vL, t, cL, cD0, muR, hB, d, rho )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
