SubOrbMaxRange:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Computes maximum range for a sub-orbital traj. given initial velocity.
Also returns the initial flight path angle required to reach the max
range.
Assumes spherical Earth and initial / final altitudes of zero.
Since version 1.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
[maxRange,gammaOpt] = SubOrbMaxRange( V );
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

V (1,N) Initial velocity (km/s)
-------
Outputs
-------
maxRange (1,N) Maximum range around the Earth (km)
gammaOpt (1,N) Optimal flight path angle to reach max range (rad)
