THE AG AIRPLANE WAS ON TAKEOFF ROLL WHEN THE PILOT SMELLED SMOKE IN THE COCKPIT. HE STOPPED THE AIRPLANE AND TURNED OFF THE FUEL AND SWITCHES BEFORE EVACUATING THE AIRPLANE. HE SAID THE FLAMES WERE COMING FROM THE COWLING AROUND THE ENGINE. DUE TO THE TOTAL DESTRUCTION BY FIRE, THE ORIGIN OF THE FIRE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED.
