How big of a fire is it? If it's a small fire, like a trash can or something, airliners have handheld fire extinguishers. For an engine fire or a cargo compartment fire, airliners have fixed fire suppression systems--the plane has Plumbing, sprinkler heads and tanks of fire extinguishing agent. But those huge fires you see when a plane crashes? Aircraft crash fires are primarily fuel fires--Class B. The best agent is Aqueous Film Forming Foam, or AFFF, which was invented by the US Navy to fight fires on aircraft carriers. It works extremely well.
