Video just today of a young lad hand-cranking his prop-attached piston engine to life. There is a place for the old skills, no worries.

Though I am not entirely sure why the demonstration needed to be done while airborne.

This post is not tangential. Nobody will complain about an auto emergency descent on an airliner when your own cheeks are strapped to s seat at row 1 or further aft.

Just make sure to understand what game and why are we playing.
