From an earlier thread:
Subsequent to the MAD incident [a two-engined GA], a procedure was introduced where the boost could be started in flight. It involved a very lengthy procedure with CB's being pulled to make it think it was on the ground and an extremely small relight speed window (IIRC). The Chinese insisted on this from the start on their T3's.
