Crash to desktop without error message

2 consecutive 0x…05 CTDs over the Alps last night, again for no apparent reason. Hadn’t had anything like that for several months. This time at very high altitudes so it wasn’t during approach or post-landing taxiing (which comprise 99% of my CTDs). The curious thing is that I repositioned the aircraft after the first CTD at the same spot (easy to do when using OnAir) and it crashed again within 5 minutes or so, which wasn’t expected at all.

I reloaded the sim, deleted and disabled rolling cache and the rest of the flight went fine (yes, I had already refreshed my cache after SU8 went out). I can only assume it was something very specific to this area that caused the crash but I’ve lost my will to try and replicate the trillion reasons MSFS can crash.

At least ever since I’ve removed almost all mods, I haven’t had an approach CTD in recent 90-minute flights but then like I said these near-airport crashes always occur after 2-hour flights, so it’ll take more testing.
