  "textContent": "Methods for starting an aircraft auxiliary power unit (APU) (12) in different operating conditions. A method includes performing a first start attempt on the APU (12) when the APU (12) is subjected to an operating condition and determining that the first start attempt was unsuccessful. The first start attempt includes delivering fuel to a combustion chamber (30) of a combustion engine (24) of the APU (12). After terminating the first start attempt, the method includes determining whether or not a change in the operating condition to which the APU (12) is subjected is below a threshold. When the change in the operating condition is below the threshold, the method includes performing a second start attempt on the APU (12). The second start attempt includes delivering fuel to the combustion chamber (30) of the combustion engine (24) at a fuel flow rate greater than the fuel flow rate of the first start attempt.",
