Well, if he didn't have an extinguisher, what was he supposed to do?
Take it home without starting the engines.
Gordon , you hit the nail on its head......

Yea, I agree. I used to be a bit cavalier about starting the engine on my Kangaroo because it was so open, but with an enclosed turbine, I NEVER start it without the fire extinguisher right there beside the plane. Even a small fire in that situation can cause major repairs if you don't get it out VERY quickly. I also carry an Indian firepump in my trailer for a possible grass fire...
