WHAT FLIGHT CONTROL SURFACE IS USED TO AUGMENT THE AILERONS TO ACHIEVE THE ROLL RATE COMMAND EITHER BY PILOT OR AUTOPILOT?
- A.
ELEVATOR
- B.
RUDDER
- C.
SPOILER
- D.
FLAP
Correct Answer
C. SPOILERExplanation
Spoilers are flight control surfaces that are used to augment the ailerons to achieve the roll rate command either by the pilot or autopilot. Spoilers are located on the wings and are used to disrupt the airflow over the wings, which reduces lift and causes the aircraft to roll. By deploying the spoilers asymmetrically, the pilot or autopilot can control the roll rate of the aircraft. This allows for precise control during maneuvers and helps maintain stability and control in various flight conditions.Rate this question:
