What Is an Aircraft Starter Generator?

An aircraft starter generator serves two critical functions. 

First, it acts as a starter motor during engine startup, using electrical energy to rotate the drive shaft and turn the engine. Once the engine reaches operating speed, it switches roles and becomes a generator that produces electrical power for the aircraft’s systems.

This dual-purpose component converts mechanical energy from the engine into electrical energy that powers navigation equipment, lighting, avionics, and other aircraft components. The starter generator connects directly to the engine through a drive shaft system.

Why Starter Generators Are Crucial for Aircraft

Aircraft require reliable electrical power throughout every flight phase. The starter generator provides this power once the engines are running. Without a functioning unit, pilots lose access to essential systems, including:

  • Navigation and communication equipment
  • Instrument displays
  • Landing gear systems
  • Cabin lighting and environmental controls

A failed starter generator can ground an aircraft immediately. Regular maintenance of the unit and it’s aircraft generator parts helps identify signs of wear before they become major problems. Addressing minor issues early reduces operational costs and prevents unexpected downtime.
