Each starter is limited to 15 minutes of starter usage time with a minimum of 2 minutes required between the first and second extended engine motoring period. Subsequent extended engine motoring is limited to 5 minutes of starter operation with a 10–minute nonoperating (cool off) period between motorings.
Upset Recovery conditions
An aircraft upset as defined by one or more of the following occurring: 1. Any stall indication (including buffet or stick shakers). 2. The aircraft pitch attitude is unintentionally more than 25° nose high. 3. The aircraft pitch attitude is unintentionally more than 10° nose low. 4. The aircraft bank angle is unintentionally greater than 65°. 5. Within above parameters but flying at airspeeds/attitudes inappropriate for the conditions.

Prohibited Operations
- Intentional spins, stalls, aerobatics, steep dives (not associated with an Emergency Descent), or maneuvers resulting in abrupt accelerations. 2. Use of auto land. 3. Load factor greater than 2.0 g’s with asymmetric thrust. 4. Holding and on-station mission operations in icing with flaps extended. 5. Use of Mission Limit Mode. 6. Uninterrupted rudder deflections across the neutral position (commonly referred to as rudder reversals). Approximately zero sideslip and yaw must be established at neutral rudder. 7. Rapid rudder check or rapid release to neutral after abrupt rudder input. 8. Alternating control inputs, especially in combination with large changes in pitch, roll, or yaw (e.g., large sideslip angles). 9. Uninterrupted rapid wheel inputs across the neutral position at roll rates greater than 10 degrees per second. 10. Inflight auxiliary fuel transfer functions FWD > AFT and AFT > FWD, except to prevent or correct a cg limit exceedance. 11. Flight beyond stick shaker or initial buffet (whichever occurs first). 12. Intentional single engine or simulated single engine maneuvers, except as required for an FCF. 13. Use of tactical fuel flow margin.
