Ryanair Fire and Smoke Practice Test 2026 - Free Fire and Smoke Practice Questions and Study Guide

This item tests the idea of starving a fire by removing its fuel. A flame can only keep burning if fuel, heat, and oxygen are present. If you remove the fuel source, there’s nothing left to feed the flame once the existing fuel is used up, so the fire dies out or becomes much easier to control. In an aircraft context, this means shutting off or isolating the fuel supply to the affected area and removing any spilled fuel if it’s safe to do so. Cooling (lowering temperature) tackles the heat, ventilating can change the airflow and may feed or starve the flame depending on the situation, and adding fuel obviously makes the fire bigger. So removing the fuel source is the most effective way to stop it.
