I would love to see engine fires modeled in the game. I believe they were far more common than fuel tank fires. Would like to see the tank fires become less frequent (and engine fires more frequent), except for aircraft like the zeke, which would be easy to ignite.
I think we also have the tools required. Visually relocate the inferno we see on our wings to our engines. Simulate it just like a radiator hit. Engine temp rises
at a very rapid rate and will eventually kill the engine. If left uncorrected fire would spread and result in a fuel tank fire or in case of forward engines perhaps a
pilot wound?
Corrective action required would be to kill engine on fire (cut off fuel supply). High air speeds (I'm thinking maybe over 200mph) sustained for maybe 15 sec would stop the blaze
only if engine was shut down. For aircraft which had fire extinguishers, maybe we can even add a bottle discharge option?
Just my 2 cents...
