← TechnologyWhich outcome results when a turboprop aircraft wing's leading-edge slat deploys asymmetrically during takeoff?
A)Uncommanded roll towards retracted slat✓
B)Reduced stall speed, improved climb
C)Increased parasite drag, fuel efficiency
D)Nose-down pitching moment is generated
💡 Explanation
Uncommanded roll happens because asymmetric slat deployment alters lift distribution via differential airflow. Enhanced lift is uneven; therefore, a rolling moment occurs rather than balanced lift improvements or other pitching motions. The mechanism is altered lift distribution.
