There was another neat little feature in the B707 spoiler system You could split them and use only inbd or outbd spoilers to induce pitch changes. very handy for a jammed stab.

Switch up - pitch up or NUKI (Nose Up Kill Inbd) was the word.

Why do I still remember this stuff???
mustafagander, that brings back memories for me also!

We used "Left for Lift" (ie to lift the nose) - recall doing it for real on the a/c during training at PIK circa 1974 - happy days!
