← TechnologyWhich consequence results when an aircraft's wing stall strips are damaged during pre-flight?
A)Reduced control surface effectiveness at low speeds✓
B)Decreased parasite drag at higher altitudes
C)Increased engine efficiency during climb
D)Early fuel depletion during crosswind landings
💡 Explanation
Reduced control surface effectiveness occurs because stall strips induce a controlled stall at the wing root section, rather than the tip, ensuring ailerons maintain lift. Therefore controllability is sustained near stall, rather than the dangerous tip stall that could occur.
