This is quite complex though, and the fact that what you have said is programmed into the AI is awesome.

In the first place, it is rather rare happening. He, probably, got some oxygen lines between tank and mask partially severed, so the fire was sucked by air flow and brought into the mask.
It would require a lots of things programmed to get such situation possible, but would it be justified, taking in account, this situation may happen, like, once in million?
I think, you'd have enough bother, managing your fuel tanks and engines.
