← TechnologyWhich risk increases when fuel pressure decays during aircraft maneuvers?
A)Flameout due to fuel pulsation✓
B)Oxidizer freezing in fuel line
C)Premature catalytic converter aging
D)Increased engine oil contamination
💡 Explanation
A flameout risk rises because decreasing fuel pressure causes fuel pulsation via the vapor-lock mechanism leading to lean combustion. Therefore, complete engine shutdown results, rather than, say, lubrication failure or exhaust system damage.
