How do air ships turn?

Anonymous

∙ 8y ago

Airships have engines pushing them through the air and big rudders at the rear. When the rudders are put at an angle WRT the airstream, the ship will turn.

For up/down they can either vent/fill some of the lifting gas, or - to some degree - use rudders for that too.
