ENGINE STARTING-LEFT
Left Ignition and Engine Start................................................. ON
Left FUEL PRESS light extinguished
As Left N1 rpm accelerates through 11%
Left Condition Lever................................................... LOW IDLE
Right Generator ..................................................................... ON
ITT and N1 ............................................... Monitor (1000C max)
Left Oil Pressure .............................................................CHECK
At or above 50% N1
Left Auto-ignition / Engine Start ........................................... OFF
Left Generator ........................................................................ ON
Right N1 .................................................REDUCE to LOW IDLE
NOTE: In order to avoid excessive ITT, adjust fuel condition
levers to high N1 speed (approx. 60% N1) when operating in
high ambient temperatures, at high elevation, and when high
generator load is observed.
CAUTION: If ITT does not start rising within 10 seconds after
the fuel condition levers have been moved to LOW IDLE, the
fuel condition levers should be moved to CUT-OFF. Wait 60
seconds for fuel to drain and starter to cool, and then follow
ENGINE CLEARING procedure.

PROFILE SUGGESTIONS
Descent Profile using the 3:1 ratio rule
To determine the Top-of-Descent point for a targeted altitude,
multiply the altitude change (expressed in number of thousands)
by three. This equals the required distance to make the descent
using a three degree descent profile.
Example: Descending from 25,000 ft to 5,000 ft means 20,000 ft
of altitude to be lost; expressed in number of thousands, this
equals 20.
20 x 3 = 60, therefore 60 nm is where the descent to the new
altitude should begin.
