A few days ago I was told on this forum that this smoke effect is when the engine is on fire.
In tanks everything is basically in one compartment, if a fire or smoke happens it will probably involve the whole crew, but in an airplane I doubt it! And also about twin engine airplanes like the p38 I am quite sure that smoke should not enter the cockpit! Because the engines are completely separated from the cabin.

on planes its not necessarily your engine…fuel, oil, hydraulics (that picture looks like fuel tank)
plenty of pilots got burned in their seats

So maybe they should work on the effect more, this effect doesn’t give me the feeling of a plane burning at all.

hehe well if you stay in it a bit longer I guarantee you will feel fire.

im pretty sure the effect is like that in order to make it very obvious the vehicle is on fire, not out of realism
