Same here. Crashing during flights now, never had a problem before.
Event viewer always shows FlightSimulator.exe as the faulting module.
Nothing at all in my community folder.
Same here, I always had a CTD after the loading screen. However, this only happens with large planes like the A320. With the TBM 930 everything is fine. The new Charles de Gaulle landing challenge also worked without problems. Really weird.
Note:
with 1.12.13.0 I noticed a much higher system load. It starts already in main menu, where the taskmanger “Graphics_1” diagramm shows 100% ( strage : not in the earth view ) and while flight I stay allways in 100% GPU load ( again “Graphics_1” engine at a 2080Ti ) ( CPU : 26% ) and not over a city.
This high load can be again the reason that some users run into 00..5 because of hardware issues.
But, we have to check it.
A solution can be:
LIMIT you FPS with e.g. Vsync Setting, but be aware of the Vsync-Bug in MSFS !
Possible, if you know what you do, use nvidia tool to limit the FPS.
PS: we need a fix for that 100% main menu gpu load, possible this is also the reason why some users fails already in the main menu.

Welcome to the club
But at this time of the year, I think that until January we are not going to see a hotfix for this…
I have no CTD .. just notice a higher load… I still not checked all update notes

I got one yesterday, It was at Cancun, I’ll find later today the event viewer to send it to you, to see what could be wrong this time?
is again the 0x00005 or ? these game stress the pc in such a way… of course can also be a bug.
You have ctd again each time, or more rare as former ?

I’m not at home right now, and sincerely I was very angry yesterday and I just shut down the flight sim, I will try again today later to see what happened, and post the log of the event viewer to see the reason…
But it was like the others, sound stuttering and closing
A malfunction reported by “error code 0x80000003” may happen due to a number of different factors. The most common causes include incorrectly configured system settings or irregular entries in the system elements, to name a few.
“Error code 0x80000003” is one of the issues that users get as a result of the incorrect or failed installation or uninstallation of software that may have left invalid entries in your system elements, improper system shutdown due to a power failure or another factor, someone with little technical knowledge accidentally deleting a necessary system file or system element entry.
One of the most common causes is updating drivers without first removing old driver. Cleaning out all old/unused drivers is a good place to start.
EDIT: added link to procedure for removing old drivers

Two CTDs from two attempts to fly Leeds to Schiphol. Both when settling into final approach configuration, both without warning and no errors present in event log. In fact, I can find no information that would enable this to be debugged - the game just goes boom. Obviously, I’d normally roll back. Except that I can’t. Sigh.
Any suggestions on how to fault-find this, or even provide something more useful to the developers than “it crashes. this sucks.” in a bug report?
Specs: Ryzen 3600X + RTX 3070 + 32GB 3600MHz RAM, running XMP. No overclock otherwise. System otherwise stable, and indeed I did a 4 hour flight just the night before the latest update was released without issue.
I reliably always have a CTD when I answer “yes” to the “Return to main menu?” question after a normal landing, wilderness flight or landing challenge.
Just an FYI, one of the things adjusted in the update was improved compatibility for some of the lower spec GPU’s. This would imply that instructions specific to legacy driver libraries may have been implemented.
If you happen to have old driver files lurking around your system, those libraries could very well be accessed, resulting in exception errors.
I would suggest following the instructions I posted earlier in this thread to remove ALL old/unused drivers from your system. Can be a bit tedious but if nothing else it will improve boot time as it reduces the number of files Windows needs to load at start up. So there is no downside.
Thanks - this OS build is less than a month old, so there shouldn’t be much (any?) clutter on it, but I’ll take a look anyway.
Let me know how it goes. That is merely step one. 
The only bit that brings me some caution is that it’s been pretty stable recently, and I’ve done a fair few long flights. Chatting with the FBW guys, it might be something about Schiphol that’s upsetting it, so I’ll try to another destination instead and see what that does.
I just wanted to share that with the recent patch 1.12.13.0, I also experience crashes to the desktop which I could narrow down to LittleNavMap somehow causing this. When I run the sim without it, it seems to run better. Will have to test some more, maybe this may be the issue in other cases as well?

CTD if start downloading bigger files for example Paderborn Airport
I get CTD when running the Alaska Bush trip, but no problems loading a small flight plan.
I tried many combinations and Alaska Bush trip gets CTD as soon as I start LNM or crashes while loading if LNM is running at the time. I imagine the Bush Trip is loading a big file so you may be on to something here.
