>A goodly number of GA fires are in fact cockpit fires. We've got lots of electronics and wiring in glider cockpits nowadays and fancy batteries.
Too true. I wonder when that will start appearing in the accident reports. More likely battery fires though with the amount of hardware in cockpits nowadays. Then there are brake fires (towing a glider out to launch with the airbrakes out and brake on is a way to do that), canopies starting fires etc. > It will end up an obscure activity indulged in by aging eccentrics, far from civilization and polite company. Oh wait ........... RAOFLMAO. That's why I love it.... ;-)
