Default Thanks Tony - -

It will turn if you have enough speed. I had to slow down to about 60 kts to keep it from turning, Hard to imagine such a case, but if decending at 70 or up, it would start the engine. The thing to keep in mind. If you try what I did, make sure you do slow down enough to stop the engine from turning over. With the mags off, it would build up gas in the engine.
