Lets keep it simple-Unless you briefed for the conditions for the day,not runway limited etc,one can 'play' around with confirming the fire with the tower .Youre going to do that anyway to precipitate the 'evacuation',in the meantime the only thought is Stop!!
In the Calgary case (duplication of Manchester-turbine blowup and shrapnel into the tank)there was NO cockpit Fire Warning indication!!!!advised by Cabin staff.
You may supply ;fuel' to the fire,but the sooner your stopped the sooner you'll pull the shutoff(drill)
