Unhappy

As the a/c continues to descend, the rate of descent flow increases which increases the AoA on the underside which increases drag which moves out more and more from root to tip which increases the vortices which feed the induced air flow on the upside which increases AoA which increases lift which increases drag which incresas the vortices which...then the ground spoils it all.
The end.
