Nose and Visor standby system
The nose and visor standby system will lower the nose to 12.5 degrees using the yellow hydraulic system.
When activated a standby nose selector valve is operated and the hydraulic systems are switched from the Green system to the yellow system.
This is a one off operation for landing only the nose can not be raised using the yellow system and the nose must be "re set" when the aircraft is on the ground.
