The most famous Airship disaster, the Hindenberg, was caused by using hydrogen as the lifting gas. But a number of American helium filled airships were wrecked, mostly because of winds and storms. Has that problem been fixed?

Perhaps the designers feel that with the new technologies now available, the prediction, mapping and avoidance of high winds and storms is a more realistic possibility.  I agree though, I wouldn't want to be in that thing in any sort of a high wind situation.

Not really, kind of hard to fix Nature.

"The most famous Airship disaster, the Hindenberg, was caused by using hydrogen as the lifting gas."

No, actually the Hindenburg disaster was caused by using essentially solid rocket fuel (aluminum powder in lacquer) as paint for the fabric. Best evidence is that the fabric was ignited by a lightening discharge. Eventually the hydrogen "did" burn, but it wasn't the cause. This is evidenced by the huge clouds of black smoke coming off (hydrogen burns with an invisible flame).
