← TechnologyWhich consequence results when an aircraft's aileron control cable jams near the wingtip, preventing aileron deflection?
A)Reduced roll control authority remains
B)Unintended yaw during roll initiation✓
C)Complete lift loss on affected wing
D)Elevated stall speed on both wings
💡 Explanation
Unintended yaw occurs due to asymmetric drag. When the cable jams, the intended differential lift for roll cannot be generated; *adverse yaw* manifests because the descending wing produces more drag than the ascending wing, therefore causing the aircraft to yaw rather than purely roll.
