Default fire procedures

Mike,

Which fire are you talking about? There were two of them and the second crash happened while I was the only other jet in the air, I made two laps and landed with over half of my flight time remaining. At most events I have attended the norm is not to land immediatley but to not let any more airplanes up until the fire is put out. FWIW I have seen a giant scale gas powered airplane explode on impact as well. Both of the crashes this weekend happened early in the flights and the airplanes had a lot of fuel still on board.
