What if you shutdown both electrical systems and the smoke only increases?


If it is a non-electrical fire that is a separate issue.

But by having only electric gyros it becomes much harder to deal with an
electrical fire.

Airliners have fire-suppression systems which make this situation less
likely than a GA airplane.

I cannot imagine flying an electric-only airplane with no vacuum backup.
