Spoilers are plates on the top surface of a wing which can be extended upward into the airflow and spoil it.

Spoilers increase drag and reduce lift on the wing.

The player selected a number to reveal and had the option to give that clue to the Spoilers, whose fields of expertise were not mentioned, or pass it on for another clue.

Spoilers on the front of a vehicle are often called air dams, because in addition to directing air flow they also reduce the amount of air flowing underneath the vehicle which generally reduces aerodynamic lift and drag.

Spoilers are often fitted to race and high-performance sports cars, although they have become common on passenger vehicles as well.

Spoilers in racing are used in combination with other features on the body or chassis of race cars to change the handling characteristics that are affected by the air of the environment.

Spoilers are devices that when extended into the airflow over a wing, disrupt the airflow and reduce the amount of lift generated.

Spoilers ( sometimes called lift dumpers ), however, are devices that are intentionally deployed to create a carefully controlled flow separation over part of an aircraft's wing to reduce the lift it generates, increase the drag, and allow the aircraft to descend more rapidly without gaining speed.

Spoilers can also be thought of as " lift reducers " because they reduce the lift of the wing in which the spoiler resides.

Spoilers are sometimes called " lift dumpers ".

Spoilers differ from airbrakes in that airbrakes are designed to increase drag making little change to lift, while spoilers greatly reduce lift making only a moderate increase in drag.

Spoilers typically do not provide as large an opening as other roof systems, but offer the convenience of a self-storing panel.

Spoilers are sometimes used when descending from cruise altitudes to assist the aircraft in descending to lower altitudes without picking up speed.

Spoilers alleviate the situation by allowing the aircraft to descend at a desired rate while letting the engine run at a power setting that keeps it from cooling too quickly.

Atwood is the birthplace of the writer Rex Beach, best known for his 1906 novel The Spoilers, which was made into a movie five times, most notably in 1930 starring Gary Cooper and in 1942 starring John Wayne.

Scott's only role as a truly evil villain was in Universal's The Spoilers, a rip-roaring adaptation of Rex Beach's 1905 tale of the Alaskan gold rush co-starring Marlene Dietrich and John Wayne.

In 1930, she made a version of The Spoilers in which she played the role later portrayed by similar-looking Marlene Dietrich in the 1942 remake, while Gary Cooper played the part subsequently acted in the later film by John Wayne, perhaps the only time that Cooper and Wayne played precisely the same role.
