 * Calculate airspeed as a function of GPS groundspeed and vehicle attitude.
 *  From "IMU Wind Estimation (Theory)", by William Premerlani.
 *  The idea is that V_gps=V_air+V_wind. If we assume wind constant, =>
 *  V_gps_2-V_gps_1 = (V_air_2+V_wind_2) -(V_air_1+V_wind_1) = V_air_2 - V_air_1.
 *  If we assume airspeed constant, => V_gps_2-V_gps_1 = |V|*(f_2 - f1),
 *  where "f" is the fuselage vector in earth coordinates.
 *  We then solve for |V| = |V_gps_2-V_gps_1|/ |f_2 - f1|.
