Which outcome occurs when a turbojet engine operates at high altitude, near service ceiling?

💡 Explanation

When a jet engine flies near its service ceiling, the low air density reduces the compressor's ability to maintain pressure, causing boundary layer separation and compressor surge because of disrupted airflow regulation. Therefore compressor surge results rather than creep, instability or icing, which require different stress/temperature conditions.
