I notice they mention using quaternions in the abstract but it is probably easiest
to grasp a Matrix formulation first
http://ocw.mit.edu/13/13.49/f00/lecture-notes/all-Z-H-3.html

Using a quat is a bit more 'elegant' but is pretty much the same thing
here is a *classic* explaining the relationship that is esp relevant to FlightGear
http://www.movesinstitute.org/~zyda/pubs/Presence.1.4.pdf

AFAIK  Most all prediction and extrapolation is done with a kalman these days
lots of *good* stuff here and also at the MIT site linked above
