    Wings + elevator catching fire

    This happens frequently when hit. Small fires disappearing quickly. Wondering what causes these fires, is it hydraulic fluid that is burning?

    Some aircraft had fabric covered control surfaces that are doped.

    You were probably lit up by an incendiary round.
