← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when aircraft wing dihedral is decreased?
A)Dutch roll oscillation increases dangerously✓
B)Roll stability from sideslip increases
C)Adverse yaw during turns decreases
D)Maneuverability envelope gets significantly reduced
💡 Explanation
A reduction in dihedral causes a weaker restoring force against sideslip, therefore promoting Dutch roll because the weakened roll stability interacts more readily with the yaw motion, rather than damping oscillations under coordinated flight conditions.
