March 7, 201115 yr Hi!If for any reason the engine doesn't start (i haven't figured out why is sometimes doesn't start) with the automatic option and the engine get too hot to try again in perhaps 10-15 minutes, what are the options? In the manual it suggested that you could do a manual start but never how it was done. Is it simulated and in that case how do i do? Best wishesMats Mats Johansson PPL pilot and ATPL student
March 7, 201115 yr Author In addition, is there bugs in the J41 at start? I seem to try everything to try to start it and it just spools in a high pitch, I never get the satisfactory engine sound no matter what configurations i use. (I got the left engine to start just fine, but the right one just do not want to) Mats Johansson PPL pilot and ATPL student

March 16, 201115 yr For faster cooling you can turn the engine with the starter without injecting fuel. There is a time limitation (1 minute or so?) for this procedure. This can be done by performing a manual start- how this is done is described in the AOM, so no need to write a whole page here now. Regards. Matthias Hanel MilViz Beta Team
