"HOT START" for a turbine engine refers to when DURING the start the maximum
turbine inlet temperature has been exceeded. Subsequent inspection is
required prior to flight. In a piston engine a HOT START PROCEDURE tells
you how to start an already hot engine as when you just shut down and are
restarting...like maybe don't pull the choke? The terms for turbins and
piston engines are not comparable.
