I don't think they would need the starter to do an airstart if the
engine is spinning.
I was on a flight once that had the BSOD on the control system, they
rebooted the whole airplane 3X (start, shutdown, start...) then put us
off to go find another airplane.

Of course they can start the engines with the ground APU but I assume if they
lost both engines in flight they would have no way to start them.

Never had this happen before. We pushed back, tug unhooked and plane lost all
power, completely dead. No lights no AC no engines. I immediately think they
lost the APU. Sure enough pilot comes on and says we lost the “backup” power to
start the engines. Now being towed back to the gate. Guess we will need a
jumpstart.
