L-1011 Engine Start Part 1 N700TS (Aircraft leaving Roswell and heading to Kansas City) 01-30-2010

Because of a very weak APU, numerous engine starts were attempted and most resulted in "hung" starts, except for this one. After this engine (number 1) was started, they were then able to crossbleed to the other 2 engines which were then able to start normally. This start was almost a hung start as well, creating extra smoke, but then the engine does start to pick up RPM and is able to complete its start cycle. Any L10 lover will enjoy seeing this sight and hearing the sounds once again....Enjoy!!!
