Which impairment occurs when the alula feathers stall during landing?

💡 Explanation

Decreased alula angle causes turbulent reverse airflow, therefore separation of airflow occurs because induced drag increases suddenly, rather than normal landing. This is because stall increases drag and prevents controlled gliding.
