J 160 POH

XXX – I only looked at the J160 POH; it was the first one on the list.. It's really great that you can go to their web site, access and at no cost download lots of great information. Great service at the front end.

Section 3 - Emergency procedures - J160.

3.3.2 Air start & Limitations.

In the event that the engine is stopped during flight, it may be restarted by application of fuel & ignition, provided that the propeller is still wind-milling. The propeller may stop wind-milling below 50 KIAS.

The Jabiru 2200 engine is a high compression (7.8:1) engine & therefore air starts when the propeller has stopped rotating, without the use of the starter, are unlikely before reaching VNE. Therefore, the following procedure addresses only air starts by use of the starter motor.

IMPORTANT – NO NOT depress starter button while propeller is rotating
There you go - last week I'd never heard of them, now I learned something.. Lurvely...
