Spoilers
Controls which can be deployed into the airflow to 'spoil' the lift. Usually found on gliders and used to aid landing.

spoiler on an F4 Phantom wing
Spoilers are devices fitted to the wing which increase drag and decrease lift. They usually consist of a long narrow strip of metal arranged spanwise along the top surface of the airfoil.
Spoilers
Special panels built into the upper surface of the wing that, when raised, "spoil" the flow of air across the wing and thereby reduce the amount of lift generated. They are useful for expediting a descent.

Stall: Technique used to explain to the bank why your car payment is late.
Steep Bank: Banks that charge pilots more than 10% interest.
SPOILERS - Drag-inducing surfaces which can be deployed differentially for lateral control, or simultaneously for lift dumping to improve the effectiveness of landing brakes.

Spoilers The spoilers are used like air brakes to reduce any remaining lift and slow down the airplane.
Spoilers Spoilers are parts of the wing which are used to roll the aircraft and to decrease lift and increase drag during landings.
For CAT IIIc, the flight control computer will continue to accept deviations from the localizer and use the rudder to maintain the aircraft on the localizer (which is aligned with the runway centerline.) On landing the spoilers will deploy (these are ...
The use of spoilers on top of the wings can help to spoil the unwanted generation of lift. These spoilers should be used when anticipated windspeeds exceed the liftoff speed of the aircraft and attached spanwise at 25% chord.
The slip can be viewed exactly the same as spoilers on a glider. Spoilers can be put all the way out or left in and varied in such a way that the glide slope can be subtly modified to make it come out exactly where the pilot wants.
Drag can be increased with the use of certain types of devices installed on the aircraft, such as spoilers, airbrakes, or flaps.
Whereas opening the throttle causes energy to enter the mechanical system, you can also encourage energy to leave the mechanical system by extending the flaps, the spoilers, the landing gear, etc.
