I can't think on anything worse than an engine fire and it's important to discuss what to do when you have to deal with an in-flight fire. 
 
  When the DAR signed off my GlaStar he pointed to the oil pressure sensor mounted directly to the engine, saying that it was not illegal but . . . the year previous a similar cantilevered positioning resulted in a fatigue failure, the oil spewed out, and when attempting to land the pilot flew into power lines.  So maybe perhaps I might want to consider a change.  And yeah, I did not move the plane until that was repositioned.
