The possibility is there, but I don't know of any gliders that have
burned after crashing. Does anyone know someone that had a post-crash

fire?

Not a crash, but in the early 60's a pilot dropped his cigarette in a 2-22.
The ship started burning on final. The guys got out immediately on landing
and all the fabric burnt off the 2-22.
