Explanation:

A hung start in a turbine powerplant means the engine starts but doesn't reach the required speed. Shutting off the fuel (Option A) is crucial as continuing fuel flow can cause engine damage. Re - engaging the starter (Option B) won't solve the root cause of a hung start. Shutting the engine down (Option C) is too extreme without first addressing the fuel issue.

Answer:

A. Shut off the fuel.
