Something I’ve noticed: it appears only to happen when viewing towards the southeast in normal/locked from a range of angles, usually below the horizon.I will try it in the air to see what happens

Edit 1: seems to only happens at night.

Same thing happened to me as well and I can get it to go away by adjusting the time of day to around noon and it tends to occur evening and night time in the app

It happened to me, when I was landing during sunrise. Shortly before touchdown. No minimap, no global map, just touchdown. Game was still running, I could hear the sound (A359) and then the warning for overspeed on the ground… I had to turn off immediately to avoid violation. That would be tremendously uncool to get a violation due to glitches.

Other times game then closed and showed me a form to send to the developers

To me also at daylight, in A395 in the middle of touchdown

Yep, that’s how you know it crashed. I wonder if they do read them or just the ones here :thinking:

Same thing happened to me while on final at SIN

Just had this issue happen to me as soon as I started taxiing at LEMD.

This is the sort of thing that should be prioritised because it just ruins sessions, as there is no way to stop it without quitting the app.
