I wonder how RR will get the Trent 1000 (or whatever the 7E7 engine will be) started if they are going to be using the IP shaft to drive the accessories instead of the HP? I would have thought that it would take much more power to do this because you are trying to spin the HP via the IP and also it will be electric on the 'all electric jet'.
