    Abstract: An air turbine starter device includes a gear assembly, a rotor arranged in a cavity of a housing and operably connected the gear assembly, a first manifold having a cavity with a first manifold port operative to direct compressed air to the rotor, and a second manifold having a cavity with a second manifold port operative to direct compressed air to the rotor. The first manifold is larger than the second manifold, the second manifold is fluidly connected in parallel with the first manifold, and the first manifold port and the second manifold port are operative to drive the rotor in a common direction for starting a gas turbine connected to the gear assembly. Air turbine starter systems and methods of starting gas turbine engines are also described.
