Abstract
A method and decoupler for disengaging an output member from an engine in a back drive event with a backdrive decoupler. The backdrive decoupler includes a shaft and a retention mechanism selectively coupling the output member to the shaft. In a backdrive event, the decoupler decouples the member from a drive shaft.
