No any aircraft can have a “Wet Start” and NO McCain did NOT have a WET START!

I’m agreeing with that.

I get that he didn’t. If his aircraft was started in the position that the diagram indicates, it wouldn’t have mattered anyway since the exhaust was pointed over the side, right?

I hadn’t heard the ‘wet start’ theory before today. As far as I’m concerned, it has been put to bed.
