July 15, 20196 yr Moderator I'm surprised to see that they were still 'finger-flipping' the props to start the engines. Using a battery powered drill with a soft rubber 'cone' is much safer. Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
July 15, 20196 yr Hand propping is more of a risk, but with nitro/gas and especially diesel engines, electric starters risk damage to internals if the cylinder/cylinders are hydro-locked. Many still prefer hand propping. <p>Dassault Falcon, Lear, Embraer and Challenger and Cessna Mechanic.Broadcasting live from former Soviet Missile Silo.Rhys Legge
