← ScienceWhich failure occurs when aircraft de-icing spray inhibits capacitance?
A)Erroneous fuel quantity indication✓
B)Uncontrolled stabilizer trim runaway
C)Increased engine stall vulnerability
D)False fire detection alarm trigger
💡 Explanation
Icing spray contamination insulates the fuel tank's capacitance probes, disrupting the capacitive fuel quantity measurement system; therefore, the fuel level shown is incorrect rather than other failures because capacitance is affected.
