Centaurus,
found an old Fokker 28 article on line (http://steemrok.com/nw%20san/nw%20f28)....
"there is provision for a 'buddy' start where both engines can be started from a second F.28 by means of connecting pipes. One Airline in Australia requires each of it aircraft to carry such a pile in the event of a rescue operation"

Sounds like a jet version of your Indian rope trick .


@olderairhead.

Without negotiation with either pilot body the board has cut DTA by 10% for up to 8 days and 15% for more than 8 days.
HEADLINE: PX STAFF TO EAT 10-15% LESS TO HELP BOTTOM (LINE).
"BOOM BOOM"
