Departing VC10, Brize with full pax load, no1 won't start, safety raiser positioned under it, cowl dropped open and said safety raiser jacking handle used to beat the holy crap out the air start valve (used to stick because of a slight bit of carbon) satisfying sound as it opens and the engine winds over, close cowl, lower said safety raiser then look up at worried pax faces peering out the windows that had been watching me and hearing me throughout the aircraft beat the bejesus out of the thing to get it running......
Not hard for me, but I bet it worried the poo out of some pax
