MAINTAIN CONTROL
masters off
vents and windows closed
discharge extinguisher ( ur fu*ked if its the old 'fire axe' on board)
when fire is out ventilate cockpit

Now its time to decide
Forced laning in a paddock or strip near by
If tracking to an airfeild make standard overhead or published joining procedure
Make phone calls when you are on the deck

Unless you have burnt through the mag switch wires the engine will still run the wings will still be flying and your eyes can still see.

other than the brown smear in your pants its like loosing your alt and running out of battery juice.
