← TechnologyWhich mechanism causes stick-shaker activation during powered flight near stall?
A)Angle-of-attack sensor failure✓
B)Elevator control surface saturation
C)Hydraulic actuator pressure drop
D)Center-of-gravity limit exceeded
💡 Explanation
Stick-shaker activates due to angle-of-attack sensor malfunction driving erroneous stall warnings, not control surface limits. This erroneous signaling triggers stall warning systems, therefore the stick shaker operates inappropriately, rather than activated due to surface saturation or instability.
