Firstly, sorry for the smiley in my last post as it makes me seem really morbid.
I am with you here on this, as I would not like to see the pilot being burnt in such a way. However, the effect I think should be modelled. War is hell, and I am for full realism. I don't neccesarily want to be in a bomber and see this happen to one of the crew close-up, but I think it should be modelled as an effect in front of your face when in cockpit view. A flick of a button, and the flames stop coming out; just like turning the gas off of a bunsen burner.
