Which consequence results when an aircraft's automatic landing system's flare control experiences delayed altitude readings?

A)Hard landing with structural stress
B)Unintentional early deployment of spoilers
C)Runway excursion due to floating
D)Engine over-speed and compressor stall

💡 Explanation

A hard landing occurs because with altitude misreporting, the autoland system misjudges height above ground, and fails to properly execute the flare maneuver resulting in a high vertical speed touchdown. Therefore, substantial structural stress happens, rather than a controlled touchdown altitude.
