The no1 Burner, a most excellent piece of kit.

However, if it started leaking from the pressurization system (i.e. behind the heat shield) and you didn't catch it in time to kill the flame, all you could do was run away, because it would go up in a sheet of flames. I never saw one explode, but it wasn't unknown, apparently. I certainly saw a couple go up in flames.
