Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods for providing AC power from multiple turbine engine spools are disclosed. An aircraft system in a particular embodiment includes an engine having a first shaft connected and a second shaft. The aircraft system can further include a bus system and a first energy converter including a starter/generator, coupled between the first shaft and the bus system to convert a first variable frequency energy transmitted by the first shaft to a first generally constant frequency energy. A second energy converter can be coupled between the second shaft and the bus system, with the second energy converter including a generator to convert a second variable frequency energy transmitted by the second shaft to a second generally constant frequency energy.
