Re the last few answers about scramble or quick starts, I am sorry to labour the point but, if your Police Heli's have to be tasked PDQ, is your start system automatic as the FADEC, or do you still have to watch such things as temp rises and torqs of engines, prior to actually feeding in the power to rotors, I only ask this for on a slightly similar thread, a member is stating a lot of problems with Police Heli engines. And I wondered, if you chaps have auto start systems that should not happen, but is it possible on a manual start of a twin, for on the B206 I find such a lot to occupy my mind at the start, but having two engines must be a nightmare, if you are being pressed, I only asked Cos I am interested , I am not looking to pierce anybody
