Interesting to see that hot start in the Braathens 735. But what exactly is a hot start?? Why is it called that? I assume it is because flames shoot out the back of the engine and not to do with the engine temps being warm following a short turn-around or something.

And is a tactical PA announcement to the passengers warning them not to panic at the fire and smoke on start-up in order on such an occasion?

Hope my car doesn't do that tomorrow morning...
