Default RE: Wren starter options, and cooldown

Out of interest: the full size practice is to idle the engine for a given time (around 3 minutes - usually long enough to taxi onto stand), and then shut it down. There is no cooling cycling as in our engines, and the jet is often tail into wind - sometimes into a very strong tailwind. They sem to survive this treatment OK.
