Skills test Engine Stop / Start
18 hours into a NPPL, a question.
I looked on the NPPL web site last night to see what the skills test involves.
Point 11. Engine. Stop / Start
(minimum 2000 ft) (using electric starter)
So, this means, I stop the engine off at the examinors request, pull out mixture and throttle, at no less than 2000 ft, get the aeroplane into a glide, put mixture to rich, open throttle a quarter, prime once and lock prime, turn key and hope the engine fires up, fly away?..................
If that is what it takes, that is what I will do, however, I do question the safety aspect.
