Which mechanical failure arises when aircraft spoilers are deployed asymmetrically mid-flight?

💡 Explanation

Asymmetrical spoiler deployment causes an unintended rolling moment because it disrupts lift on one side, resulting in unequal lift distribution. Therefore, rolling occurs, rather than stabilized flight, decreased drag, or diminished boundary layer separation which relates to stalling.
