Have to agree with Ollie. For the life of me I can't see any difference between a normal or manual start irrespective of OAT's. Of course you would run the engine at max motoring until you got the EGT BELOW 100c BEFORE introducing fuel.


Can only think of one scenario, where, if the engineer on the ground closed the valve early after lightoff and thereby creating a hung/hot start
