Default RE: GO IN FIRE

Didn't we just see a thread recently where another jet was lost due to a start-up fire, and the guy's only "extinguisher" was a small bottle of drinking water ?

Darwin is hard at work.

Our engines have become so reliable nowadays that I've seen several people take them for granted and get ready to start up without an extinguisher in sight, until I go fetch one from my truck and shove it right under their noses. That kind of complacency has no place in this hobby IMO.
