So did the Lightning, I haven`t heard of fire issues with that a/c either. Must be something unique to the Belvedere / Gazelle engine installation.

The Canberra PR9, Hunter FGA 9 and the Javlin in particular all suffered from Avpin fires on start up, the PR9 was easy to deal with as the fire was usually outside of the engine nacelle but the Javlin just burned!
