← TechnologyWhich consequence results when anti-icing bleed air fails?
A)Elevator hard-over occurs unexpectedly
B)Engine stall becomes more likely
C)Control surface icing increases✓
D)Hydraulic pump failure accelerates
💡 Explanation
Increased control surface icing results after bleed air fails, because **convective heat transfer** stops ice sublimation, which increases ice accumulation to critical thresholds; increasing drag and weight rather than aerodynamic performance, therefore performance will decrease.
