In the "ole days" an accepted procedure was to accelerate - downwards if necessary - and try to blow the fire out....................it sometimes worked on piston engined aircraft of world war 2.
I can't imagine many fires staying alight at .95 mach - which most modern airliners could achieve without breaking up.
In my previous company it was always a source of debate - even up to 747 Classics - whether you accelerated to try and blow the fire out or crash-landed (or ditched) with a burning engine. You can't do both.........................dunno the answer, luckily !
