In a fly-by-wire aircraft, which consequence results following the disconnection of both primary elevon control cables?

A)Automatic switching to direct link
B)Loss of flight control authority
C)Emergency flaps full deployment occurs
D)Engine thrust immediately cuts back

💡 Explanation

A loss of control occurs because redundant hydraulic or electrical pathways within fly-by-wire systems rely on continuous signals relayed through intact control cables using the Force feedback mechanism; therefore, disconnection severs the signal pathway, rather than activating mechanical backups due to cable failure.
