I wasn't there.  Pilot didn't state anything about engine fire that I heard, I thought he said emergency.  I'm wondering if he had fire in pelican rack, maybe location of oxygen bottles.  Tail boom attach right above pelican rack.  If fire there might get avionics overheat caution but no engine fire.  No fire suppression for avionics area in pelican rack.  Engine compartment designed to contain fire up to 2500 deg F.  If all this happens within a minute after takeoff, I don't think it was engine fire.  Handled appropriately.  Good thing is pilot survived so all will be known soon enough
