ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue: I am experiencing a consistent Crash to Desktop (CTD) in the default Cessna Citation Longitude. The crash occurs immediately upon reaching Top of Climb (TOC) and transitioning to the cruise phase, at the exact moment I trigger the passenger announcement. The sim freezes for a split second and then closes completely without any error message.
This happens while playing in Career Mode.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? 100% reproducible (Every time I reach TOC and trigger the announcement in SU5).
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
1. Start a flight in the default Cessna Citation Longitude in MSFS 2024 (SU5).
2. Take off and follow the flight plan, climbing towards the assigned cruise altitude.
3. Wait until the aircraft reaches Top of Climb (TOC) and transitions to the cruise phase.
4. At that exact moment, trigger the passenger announcement.
5. The sim will instantly crash to the desktop.
