Which consequence results when air supply lags during touch down?

A)Compressor stall induces flameout
B)Turbine overspeed prompts shaft breakage
C)Nozzle clogging limits flow
D)Blade erosion reduces efficiency

💡 Explanation

Compressor stall and subsequent flameout occurs due to insufficient oncoming airflow reaching core axial compressor blades at low forward speed. This flow separation causes back-pressure waves inhibiting smooth airflow, because the mass flow through the engine is disrupted; therefore engine fails, rather than alternatives affecting speed or flow.
