Check out this B-24 on fire. As far as I know, there are no fuel tanks in the fuselage. Other things can burn:

Yes, planes can burn.

After made clear this subject, last week I was shooted in my Spitfire left wing, just few rounds and some damage decals, nothing big. When I drop gear, the left tire was flat...

Amazing!

There was a fuel tank in the fuselage. It was between the wing roots and above the bomb bay. In the picture, that tank is burning, with flames exiting the top of the fuselage and the waist gunner positions.

Also, notice the crew member sitting at the emergency exit above the cockpit! Wow.

Default OK - that's wierd you saw the spinning wheel

Because I specifically noticed that the wheels were not spinning on take-off and thought that it was quite a shame that it wasn't modelled that way.

I'll triple check tonight, but I'm almost positive.

They do spin, so if your wheels dont you have a problem at your end.
