[quote Carnos Jax]Birdman, do you by any chance know how the engine restarted? Don't know much about about this particular model in the Citation series, but being that it's a newer model, did it have some sort of FADEC? Maybe some sort of short occured in the starting circuit? Or perhaps the pilot just didn't properly secure the plane?
No FADEC on this model, just a short in the start relay inside the main junction box. It was salt water as well so it just happened. Also the throttle levers were at full power setting since he tried a go-around at the last moment.
The new version of this model has a fadec but this was an older serial number.
