After refuelling at the fuel station, passengers boarded and the pilot started the engine.
While taxiing, the pilot received information via radio about smoke from the exhaust.
The pilot shut down the engine and smoke appeared in the cabin coming from the engine compartment.
All occupants evacuated from the aircraft but the pilot failed to close the main fuel supply and activate the fire extinguishing system before leaving the aircraft, which resulted in the fire immediately spreading to a substantial part of the aircraft and destroying it.
