← TechnologyWhich unstable effect results when an aircraft aileron jams during high-speed flight?
A)Adverse yaw is exacerbated
B)Control reversal is induced✓
C)Dutch roll oscillations start
D)Buffet intensity weakens
💡 Explanation
Control reversal occurs because aileron deflection twists the wing, causing decreased lift past a speed threshold, therefore the aircraft rolls opposite the intended direction, rather than responding normally; this high-speed structural deformation risks negative handling qualities.
