A method to determine gust reponse characteristics and simultaneously estimate the discrete gust input from flight test data using system identification techniques is presented. The method is restricted to longitudinal motion of aircraft with separated wing and tail surfaces at low Mach numbers. The applicability of the method is demonstrated by analyzing free flight catapult tests and dynamic wind tunnel tests with models of the Do 28 TNT aircraft. A good fit of the measured and identified time histories is achieved by considering the dynamic terms which are important for angles of attack varying rapidly due to gusts.
