Which impairment occurs when the alula feathers stall during landing?

A)Decreased lift and increased drag
B)Increased maneuverability and climb rate
C)Stabilized soaring and reduced turbulence
D)Enhanced thrust and maintained airspeed

💡 Explanation

Decreased alula angle causes turbulent reverse airflow, therefore separation of airflow occurs because induced drag increases suddenly, rather than normal landing. This is because stall increases drag and prevents controlled gliding.
