Which risk increases when overwing exit systems in aircraft lack mechanical advantage gearing?

A)Rotor stall becomes more likely
B)Increased turbine blade tip vortices
C)Slower emergency egress initiation
D)Elevated gearbox oil temperatures occur

💡 Explanation

Slower emergency egress initiation occurs because, without mechanical advantage gearing, the force required to open a heavy aircraft door increases via direct actuation. Therefore, door operation requires more manual force, rather than optimized reduction gearing.
