Am I serious ? You bet'ye !


Bustre....Yeah, I've always considered airborne electrical fires trivial
too!!


Are you serious?
A real fire, yes and false fire warnings are indeed to be considered serious as well IF they repeat themselves. One offs are analysed as to cause and a fix made right after the incident occurrence. This fix may be written up in a Technical Note or AD if there is a suspected possibility of recurrence on other aircraft.
Is every false incident, therefore, of importance to discussions on this website ? Not if everyone were to start reporting them...................this site would run out of space ! False fire warnings occur quite frequently.
