Hi All,
Had the plane in the hanger to do some maintenance and got clean bill of health. Went for a flight. At climb out I saw some smoke out the window. I toggled to chase plane view and WOW...there was an engine fire??? Well, I turned around and got it landed... did not loose power, or any indication with the instruments?
I should have taken a picture in the air
The maintenance hanger there was no indication of a problem after landing? Any idea what the problem was?
Thanks, Kent.

Re: Engine Fire after take-off?
Hi Kent,
It sounds to me like you hit the “I†key or which ever key toggles the smoke system on your simulator. This would trigger the smoke that you would see during a fire and so on. Just take her up and hit “I†and see if the same smoke come up again.
Happy flying
