Which of the following would NOT help cure a tip-stall tendency?
Answer: D
Correct answer: Tapering the planform more sharply
Sharper taper makes the problem worse, since it raises the local lift coefficient towards the tip still further - taper is the usual cause of a tip-stall tendency rather than a cure for it. The other three all help: washout lowers the tip incidence, a fence checks the outboard boundary layer drift on a swept wing, and outboard slats raise the stalling angle of exactly the sections that would otherwise go first.
