Abstract
The basic principles of airship aerostatics and aerodynamics as they apply
to powered Lighter Than Air vehicles are summarized. The development of
static lift is discussed, as is the effect of the variation of atmospheric
parameters on the lift of an aerostat. In addition, the use of dynamics and
powered statics as a lift adjunct is reviewed.
