Burnt offerings

Engineer - a fairly tongue in cheek contribution I'm sure, however the smoke wasn't traced to burnt offerings until after the aircraft was shut down on the runway after landing.

Suffice to say the flight deck had deemed the smoke hazard sufficient to require them to go onto oxygen masks. Anything which could result in a fire situation in an enclosed aluminium tube can never be handled lightly.

Well handled by all concerned.
