Question
Technology

Which risk markedly increases when an aircraft's landing gear employs a mechanically locking, irreversible actuation system with a faulty sensor?

A)Missed go-around opportunity
B)Engine nacelle overheat
C)Rudder control reversal
D)Unintended spoiler deployment

💡 Explanation

A missed go-around occurs because a faulty sensor in an irreversible actuation mechanism could signal locked gear status prematurely and incorrectly. This restricts pilots from retracting the gear for another approach, because the manual override is mechanically blocked; therefore a high risk of stuck configuration occurs, rather than allowing flexibility during unstable conditions.
