careful with this precious unicorn....
This aircraft is now showing in Campinas Brazil and was the subject of a squawk in the last week or so. Fire clearly could not have been that serious or the engine was quickly replaced.
Apparently it was a valve that needed ajustment. The engine was not damaged.

Came through IAH last night from an unknown airport.
The aircraft flew Leipzig to Rekiavik (sp?) then to Goose Bay Labrador Canada and then to KIAH and on to Campinas Brazil. There was an earlier posting about 10 days ago about the routing. I will try to find and post a link
