When your diving from 14k in  a Niki the increased pressure build up blew your dual expenditure gaskets causing a fuel leak.  Some of this fuel got on the exhaust and ignited.

Just had my b25 burst into flames after a plane had already left.
I did make a pretty good turn and maybe I just ripped my wing off and caused it to flame...heres the film.  I havent reviewed it yet as im still playing.

I make the turn at under 300mph at 11 minutes.
