Jet turbine starting equipment ?
"Bertie the Bunyip" wrote in message .. . Externet wrote in news:a78f196e-92e0-46d3-9c4d- : Hi. Could not find a proper group to ask, sorry : The old Boeing 707 and perhaps others had a tiny 3000+ psi air compressor on board driven by a hydraulic motor to start engines with NO ground equipment assist. Which current aircraft have a similar compressed air starting system on board ? Thanks. No civil AC I know of, except some russian light planes. Bertie Yeah, Mx probably doesn't know either.
