Technology

Which risk significantly increases during a stall in flight due to over-activation of ailerons?

A)Adverse yaw
B)Engine failure
C)Fuel starvation
D)Decreased airspeed

💡 Explanation

Adverse yaw increases due to increased drag on the lowered aileron's wing during a stall; because airflow is disrupted, the aileron deflects into separated flow, which disproportionately increases drag rather than increasing lift; therefore significant yawing occurs, rather than simple roll.
