Georgia Jets did a survey on causes of fires a couple of years ago. Maybe e-mail them and ask if they still have the results. (the link I have isn't working but their home page is [link]http://www.georgiajets.org[/link]

Heres a couple of other links with some numbers that might help you take some facts with you if you wish to negotiate.

A couple of closed cup flash point tests won't cost a huge amount to get some real information. Do them on Glow fuel and 2 stroke fuel, you may be surprised at the results.

Of course, regardless of the motive power, I would be worried if the plane being flown over a high fire risk area had any form of LiPo on board for any reason - they are by far the biggest risk in a lawn dart incident.

Emus may have small IQ's but they taste good, make good oil (not for 2 strokes though) and great leather (especially when worn on a super model - which may or may not affect the taste).
