A gas turbine engine comprises a low speed spool and a high speed spool, with each of the spools including a turbine to drive a respective one of the spools. The high speed spool rotates at a higher speed than the low speed spool. A high speed power takeoff is driven to rotate by the high speed spool, and a low speed power takeoff is driven to rotate by the low speed spool. The high speed power takeoff drives a starter generator and a permanent magnet alternator. The low speed power takeoff drives a variable frequency generator.
