Aang requires a little time to enter Avatar state, doesn't he,
In terms of like "charging up" or something?
No its kind of a "Aangs eyes glow bam hes avatar state
and remember Aang at peak power can go into AS at will (at least thats what I think happened once his chakra / connection to AS reopened in the Ozai fight)
