← TechnologyWhich consequence results when the emergency gear deployment system malfunctions in an Airbus A320?
A)Complete loss of braking ability
B)Uncontrollable engine over-speed condition
C)Potential for a wheels-up landing✓
D)Hydraulic system pressure instability
💡 Explanation
A malfunction in the emergency deployment system inhibits the 'free-fall' mechanism. Because gravity cannot pull the gear into position, therefore wheels-up landing becomes likely, rather than alternatives affecting braking or hydraulic pressure regulated separately.
