Starter limits CEO

Answer 37

- A standard automatic start that includes only one start attempt, is considered one cycle - For ground starts (automatic or manual), a 15 s pause is required between successive cycles - A 30 min cooling period is required, subsequent to three failed cycles or 5 min of continuous crank. - For manual start, observe a 2 min maximum cycle time - For crank, observe a 5 min maximum cycle time - The starter must not be run when N2 is above 10% on-ground and 18% in-flight.
