← TechnologyWhile maneuvering an aircraft, which consequence results when adverse yaw occurs due to aileron deflection?
A)Delayed roll initiation and response✓
B)Increased stall speed on one wing
C)Excessive structural load on wings
D)Unrecoverable spin without pilot input
💡 Explanation
Adverse yaw causes delayed roll, because differential drag from ailerons forces the aircraft to yaw opposite the intended roll direction through aerodynamic resistance, called parasitic drag. Therefore, slower roll onset, rather than other catastrophic structural failure, results at low speeds.
