TheiC....thanks for that, have to admit i'd concentrated purely on one area when starting the 525 in relation to the OP's question - care to elaborate further on what to look for with regard to fuel flow and hot starts ?.....got to admit my increasingly poor memory and lack of flying means i'm forgetting loads these days, so would be nice to get some pointers as to what to look for in future....like tesco, "every little helps" lol.
