Which aerodynamic outcome occurs when an aircraft’s flaps are deployed mid-flight at excessive airspeeds.?

💡 Explanation

Flap flutter can occur because the aerodynamic forces exceed the structural damping capacity, causing oscillations; therefore, failure is possible, rather than increased stability, because flutter induces instability at higher speeds.
