The fire (non-ball) does happen occasionally, but is usually delayed with
respect to the accident because it takes time for fuel to leak, evaporate
and find something hot to get ignited by.  Plenty of time to leave the area,
but disappointing for simulation users who want an impressive crash effect.

I see nothing wrong with a fireball feature ... a PLIB sequenced 3D
animation that gets loaded from a file (if requested by config option)
and triggered to be played by the rising edge of the "crash flag".
