Which outcome occurs when an aircraft’s landing gear extends above V_LO (landing gear operating speed)?

💡 Explanation

Increased drag follows exceeding V_LO because exceeding that speed buckles the landing gear's doors and supporting structures when the deployment mechanism is activated. This yields turbulent flow which therefore drastically increases drag above specified values rather than streamlining/reducing it for economy at lower speeds.
