For the process of starting a turbine engine, this is what I have
identified, so far:

Actions:
-------

1) engage the starter
2) throttle at ground idle setting
3) ignition on (at ~8% ground idle rpm)
4) fuel on
5) at ignition, engine begins to produce torque
6) when torque produce by engine equals starter torque and can accelerate
the spool to ground idle speed by itself, starter motor is cut
7) throttle is reduced to flight idle

Indications:
-----------
N1, N2, EGT, Fuel Pump Press, Entry Press into LP Turbine, EPR, Oil press,
Oil temp, Fuel Flow, fuel temp, fuel low press, P drop across fuel filter,
starter valve position

Am I missing any, or do I have any unnecessary items?
