Someone told me a story about bad smoke developing in the cockpit of a glider. The pilot ejected the canopy. At that point the increased airflow stoked the smoldering fire and something burst into flames. Story goes, he landed and the fire went back to smoldering.

Does this sound plausible or is it yet another BS story?
