Ive seen the photo of the Hellcat on fire before.
That's not a Hellcat, but a Wildcat (FM-1 or FM-2, which were the GM/Eastern Aircraft-manufactured versions. The FM-2 had a slightly taller tail, but I can't readily tell of the planes had it by those two pics). The pic of the Wildcat bursting into flames clearly shows a round cowling rather than the oval one of the F6F.
