The UH-60L Blackhawk helicopter has two T700-GE-701C turboshaft engines, which are started sequentially.

To start the engines, the pilot first turns on the battery and generator switches, then selects the engine to be started and places the corresponding fuel control lever to the “ground” position. The pilot then turns the engine start switch to the “start” position and monitors the engine instruments until the engine reaches idle RPM. The process is repeated for the second engine.

Once both engines are running, the pilot performs final checks before takeoff. The collective control is raised to lift the helicopter off the ground, and the cyclic control is used to maneuver the helicopter. As the helicopter gains alтιтude, the pilot adjusts the collective and cyclic controls to maintain a stable ascent.

During takeoff, the pilot also monitors the engine instruments to ensure proper engine performance. The UH-60L Blackhawk is capable of vertical takeoff and landing, and can also take off and land on a runway like a traditional airplane.
