Hellenic Air Force F-4E Phantom start up

[@ILSRWY4]

Very cool! one thing to note.. wonder why they used external air to start both engines.. Normal start procedures according to the Flight Manual, states once one engine (either one) is started the other can be started by air from the other running engine.

[@mlodyRudy09]

perhaps to speed up the engines starting? seems like they started working faster than in an other video i saw about the f-4e starting without external air.

[@crew206]

nope. air start on both engines, no crossover start on the F-4e
