I wanna Fly!!!!

Hi im dweeb!!!
Im kind of making a space flying simulations thingy.
And i have a problem moving around in my 3-d world.
In 2-d it simple...
But how sould i do it in 3-d?
my guess was something like this
xpos += (float)sin(horisontal_angle) * radius;
ypos += (float)sin(verical_angle)*radius; //this is wrong
zpos += (float)cos(horisontal_angle) * radius;
glRotatef(horisontal_angle,0.0,1.0,0.0);
glRotatef(vertical_angel,1.0,0.0,0.0);
translatef(-xpos,-ypos,-zpos);
Please guys....
xpos += (float)cos(horisontal_angle) * cos(vertical_angle) * radius;
ypos += (float)sin(horisontal_angle) * cos(vertical_angle) * radius;
zpos += (float)sin(vertical_angle) * radius;

Yoo...
But what if u pitch or yaw the plane after you have rolled.
Then you are not total 3d.!?
I think it can be solved by using the roll-angle to use in calculating the pitch and yaw angle.
should be something like:
pichangle += cos(rollangle) * degOfPitch
yawangle += sin(rollangle) * degOfPitch
Workes fine for me (downstairs on an other machine).
(Ok.... i caaaan be wrong)
