DR Jack's ASW 26e had a fire in the engine bay that nearly burnt the tall boom off. A belt came apart and cut a fuel line. He stayed with the plane till landing. As I was in the shop, the repair people were amazed it did not break off, the composited was completely burned through in most places.


Do you recall how much of the ASH 26 E was burned while it was in the air, and how
much was burned after landing? I don't recall Dr. Jack expressing concern about
inflight structural failure at the time, but it's been 11 years, and I might not
be remembering accurately.
