Which unstable outcome will most probably cause an aircraft veering off-course on landing in response to asymmetric thrust from engine failure?

A)Yaw-induced roll divergence
B)Dutch roll stabilization
C)Phugoid mode damping
D)Spiral mode convergence

💡 Explanation

Yaw-induced roll divergence causes the aircraft to roll uncontrollably because the asymmetric thrust induces yaw, which in turn induces roll due to the dihedral effect or wing sweep. The unstable yaw leads to rolling motions, rather than stable convergence or other roll responses.
