← TechnologyWhich risk increases if a tailstrike exceeds the structural tolerance during landing?
A)Increased compressor stall likelihood
B)Compromised rear pressure bulkhead✓
C)Rudder lock actuator malfunction
D)Elevated landing gear temperatures
💡 Explanation
Exceeding tailstrike tolerances compromises the rear pressure bulkhead because the impact transfers amplified stress to that area through structural coupling. Cracking results, therefore pressurization fails rather than an isolated rudder issue, because tail impact focusses force on the bulkhead.
