Reconnection after application and device deactivated

Hey, this is a bit of a random one. Recently I was doing a flight from SYD-SIN-LHR. When I landed at SIN I decided to sleep and resume the journey with a new flight the next day. Instead of pressing end flight I think I just turned my iPad off while I was still in game. When I reopened my iPad I was still loaded in game and actually reconnected to the server. I left it again for a while to test and was eventually able to resume my flight and was connected to expert server for the rest of the flight.

When I ended the flight at LHR all my hours and landings were logged properly. It was my understanding that any deactivation over ~1 minute would disconnect you from the server for the rest of your flight.

I know this isn’t technically for support, just something weird that I noticed.

I’ve done this a number of times if I want to pause my online flight. It only disconnects if the app is left in the background as opposed to being turned off while the game is still open. Unsure as to the reason
