CESSNA 150C
AFTER MAKING A REST STOP, THE PLT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE ENG, USING A NORMAL START PROCEDURE, BUT THE STARTER WOULD NOT ENGAGE. HE TRIED TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION SWITCH, BUT SAID THAT 'POSSIBLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS WEARING HEAVY GLOVES, I FAILED TO SHUT THE MAG SWITCH OFF COMPLETELY.' HE THEN GOT OUT OF THE ACFT WITH THE INTENTION OF MOVING THE PROP SO THAT THE STARTER WOULD ENGAGE. AS HE MOVED THE PROP 'AN INCH OR TWO,' THE ENG STARTED. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE ACFT STARTED MOVING & COLLIDED WITH TWO OTHER AIRPLANES BEFORE IT CAME TO REST.
