Can anybody tell me how to prevent control reversal phenomenon in aircrafts?

    The Spitfire in England during WWII had this problem. What happens is the pilot would command a turn and the ailerons would deflect to lower one wing and raise the other. The problem was, during high speed, the ailerons would cause the wing to twist and the roll reversal phenomenon would occur. Ie: Turn to the left would cause the left wing to rise which is opposite what should happen. Supermarine, the manufacturer, strengthened the main spar so the wing couldn't twist at high speed and the problem was solved.

    @ AVIATOR The Q400 was not brought down by ice. It was the captain's poor airmanship that caused the crash.

    I dont believe your an aircraft manufacturer, if im right then you are refering to flying the aircraft and preventing this issue.

    STAY CLEAR OF ALL ICING CONDITIONS. IT brought down the Q400 over Bafalo NY. Or aircraft will be equipped with a stall sensing mechanism. So just do as the Manual says.
