the guy on the nearside at the start doesnt seem to be puttng much effort into it

what was the thing that was up instead of down?

with my 2 stroke tools no amount of effort will get the thing started if you flood it first time

Swastikas

it's part of history. Don't get your panties in a wad.

This isn't normal, is it? German mechanic crews weren't doing this all the time right? They had electric starters or something, right? The FW109 was such a great bomber interceptor and it would be bizarre if they needed to take time to do this with bombers on the horizon.

WW1 aircraft I know required manually spinning the propeller. It never seemed as if it was more work than this, though.

Just a minor notice - there are no swastikas on any of the planes
