There was an interesting new Seconds from Disaster the other night. It appeared the co-pilot tried to re-start the good (right) engine but there was insufficient forward speed to get it going. I note however that the APU was started when the engine was first shut down. It looks to me as though on the 737-400 you can only use the APU to start the left engine. Is this the case, and if so what's the logic in that?
