A multi-engine aircraft includes a first engine drivingly engaged to a common rotatable load and a second engine drivingly engaged to the common rotatable load, the second engine having a bleed air system and a control system in communication with a compressed air switching system. The control system controls operation of the second engine and/or the compressed air switching system. The compressed air switching system includes a switching valve that is displaceable between at least a first position and a second position, the first position interconnecting a lower pressure inlet and a switch outlet, and the second position interconnecting a high pressure inlet and the switch outlet. The switch outlet is in communication with the bleed air system of the second engine. The control system actuates the switching valve to switch between the first and second positions.
