Excuse me for being a bit thick here (if I am), but how long does it take to extinguish an engine fire ? I'm rather shocked at that clip of the engine clearly well ablaze for so long in flight. With the fuel shut off and both fire bottles discharged, surely it can't continue to burn like that ? What am I missing here ?
