Just in passing Bill I would think that starting the engine on TO would 
be an unwise thing to do.  If it was feathered you are in good shape and 
to start it you have to unfeather it and this would cause additional 
drag. (something I certainly wouldn't want).  Again to answer your 
wondering I would highly suspect that it was not approved and a really 
dumn thing to do.  Even with an Engineer starting the engine the change 
in control forces and yaw and WHATEVER would be more than I would want 
to deal with.  If and I say IF someone was going to do it I would 
recommend taking off with it feathered and obtaining a level cruising 
altitude and attempt a restart with the windmilling engine.  In Jest of 
Course.
I know that 3 and 4 engine aircraft are ferried but I know of no 
proceedure that would approve a 2 engine (single engine ferry).
