Owners Manual
Section: 3
In the event that the engine is stopped during flight, it may be restarted by
application of fuel & ignition, provided that the propeller is still windmilling.
The propeller may stop windmilling below 80 KIAS.
The JABIRU 3300 engine is a high compression (7.8 : 1) engine & therefore airstarts
when the propeller has stopped rotating, without use of starter, are unlikely before
reaching V ne.
Therefore, the following procedure addresses only airstarts by use of the Starter
Motor.
