            Abstract : 
A matrix form of solution of the aircraft attitude estimation problem based on using the least squares criterion is presented. A method for determining of certain rows of the direction cosine matrix is also proposed. A problem of the sensitivity of attitude estimates to inaccuracies of input data is analyzed.
