The cooling system includes an energy source, one or more heat exchangers for cooling a coolant, the one or more heat exchangers being connected to the energy source by a coolant circuit, one or more air channels inside which the one or more heat exchangers are placed, wherein the coolant circuit includes a bypass portion that recirculates the coolant to the energy source or circulates the coolant from the energy source to the one or more heat exchangers. The method includes decreasing the temperature of a portion of a coolant below an operating temperature, acting this portion of the coolant as a thermal buffer, and maintaining the rest of the coolant at the operation temperature. They allow enhancing the cooling capabilities of the system during the take-off phase, especially during the beginning of this phase.
