← TechnologyIn a fly-by-wire aircraft, which consequence results when electrical interference disrupts the control signals?
A)Pilot input is misinterpreted✓
B)Increased parasitic drag occurs then
C)Engine thrust asymmetry develops
D)Fuel consumption decreases sharply
💡 Explanation
Erroneous commands are sent to the flight control surfaces because the electronic signals are corrupted; the mechanism is signal interference. The plane misinterprets the pilot's inputs, therefore, commands become unpredictable, rather than resulting in drag, engine issues or fuel efficiency changes.
