KRUSTY - Departed RWY 18 with a right turn, at night, light rain at the field, reasonably high cloud base to the east (approx 3000') with heavy rain and low cloud, (not horribly low - approx 1000') less than 1nm to the west of the field.
Just had me intrigued as to why you would turn to the west, towards the worse weather and the higher terrain.
As for the engine start, i really couldn't give a cr@p about how long it takes to get them started, it was the end of my day and i could sit down the back and relax and not have to think about anymore work that day. I was just interested to know whether that was normal for the SAAB having never flown on one before.
