Zusammenfassung:The device has an angle of sideslip sensor for determining an actual angle of sideslip and a hanging angle sensor for determining an actual hanging angle. The device generates auxiliary engaging angle control signals for a position surface at a force generating surface such as wing and/or elevator unit depending on the hanging and sideslip angles. The device controls the control signal depending on components of a wind engaging angle produced by a vertical air mass movement in a symmetrical plane of an aircraft. An independent claim is also included for a method for reducing turbulence and gust effects on flight characteristics of an aircraft.
