If a STOP START situation occurs, move the condition lever back to GROUND STOP
while keeping the starter engaged.
During the start sequence, the starter switch is the last
control the pilot touches, so when presented with a STOP START condition, the natural reaction
is to “undo” the last action and release the starter. The starter should be kept engaged to purge
the engine of combustion products and provide airflow to prevent a stagnation.
During engine start observe:
Starter light and rotation within 5 seconds of engaging starter switch; if not then STOP
START
16% RPM - fuel flow indication
35% - Ignition (indicated by TIT increase), and gearbox/engine oil pressure; if not then
STOP START
60% - (pilot) Release starter switch
By 65% SEC FUEL PRESS light illuminated
