It is shown that in determining instantaneous angle of pitch or yaw, acceleration of gust is as important as its maximum velocity; expression is obtained for this instantaneous angle in terms of speed and certain aerodynamic characteristics of airship, and of maximum velocity and acceleration of gusts, and application of expression to determination of forces on ship is illustrated by numerical examples.
