    Looks like a bit of an adventure. Good that it was an outdoor installation and that nobody was hurt. I dread the thought of an electrical fire in the air - once I had a flap motor overrun on the approach to our local airport when flying solo in a Cessna plane, it went straight to full flap despite second stage being selected, luckily I realised what was happening and quickly applied more power and adjusted the trim and managed to land safely. It was only after I was safely on the ground that I smelt that distinctive burning smell of an electrical fire.
