nigegilb, unfortunately the bomb bay on the MR2 has no fire suppressent system, so if the fire is real, you are in trouble, I remember an incident at St Mawgan in the 80's when a lit flare had hung up, nothing for it but to try to "blow it out" with airflow. Luckily the aircraft made a successful recovery but was then I believe cleared for one flight only to Woodford.
