Blip,

Say you shutdown an engine due to a known oil leak. You figure it's got about an hour's running in it. Re-light below F200 on descent and make a normal landing. Been done several times during my career.

Thus, it IS available [albeit for a reduced period] should a second engine have to be shut down.

G'day
