As you have said you are a Nimrod captain (I hope I have that right), If one of your aircrew or one of their family members asked you, whats the chances of surviving a Bomb bay fire due to a fuel leak.
Knowing what happened to XV257 when the fire extinguisher had no effect and that XV230 exploded.

What would your answer be?

I have asked a Snr Officer what he would say and was not surprised by his answer.

And perhaps you could tell me what is the procedure that you practise now for a Bomb Bay fire.
